With proven form in testing conditions THUNDER ROAR (3) looks the most obvious starting point. He was awarded the race when runner-up (first past the post caused interference) over 7f at York and may well have what it takes to defy a 3lbs rise in weights. CHALLET (2) warrants serious consideration on his first outing since finishing runner-up tackling 1m at Ripon during August. There are question marks surrounding the ground for DARK SIDE THUNDER (5) however he arrives following back-to-back placed efforts on the AW off this rating and needs including nevertheless. Dual course winner LOCKDOWN LASS (11) could go well from towards the foot of the weights with Murphy booked.
