1	Back-to-back winner at Doncaster/C&D last summer. Shaped better than bare result all 3 starts this season and clearly on a handy mark if everything drops right with yard in good order. 1st Pick 1 Amidst The Chaos (Ire) Jockey: Alex Jary Trainer: Nigel Tinkler J: Alex Jary T: Nigel Tinkler	100	-	-	-	46%

2	Veteran who capitalised on a career-low mark in good style under this rider at Ripon last month. Bit to free for his own good at Beverley since but makes more appeal than most here. 2nd Pick 2 Poet's Dawn Jockey: S. B. Kirrane Trainer: Tim Easterby J: S. B. Kirrane T: Tim Easterby	95	-	-	-	20%

3	Narrow winner at Leicester last month, settling better under a more patient ride. Unsuited by slow pace at Hamilton since so probably still in form. 3rd Pick 3 Union Island (Ire) Jockey: Oliver Stammers Trainer: Charlie Johnston J: Oliver Stammers T: Charlie Johnston	95	-	-	-	8%
