David O'Meara has his string in good order and it could be worth chancing his 4-y-o BUSTAAM. He shaped with definite encouragement on his penultimate start at Newcastle in November and, with his subsequent run at that venue best overlooked, he's of interest back on turf from a career-low mark. At Liberty arrives fit and in-form from the all-weather and he's a player in refitted cheekpieces. Moonlit Cloud and Mrs Meader complete the shortlist.
