HUELGOAT will need to raise his game another notch in order to defy an 8 lb rise for last month's Wincanton success, but he impressed with his strength at the finish in what was a well-run race that day and this step back up in trip could help unlock a bit more. Collectors Item is open to improvement as a chaser and, though behind My Silver Lining at Exeter, he may well emerge as the main danger now equipped with cheekpieces. Not Sure is also a threat now his Thursday engagement is abandonded.
