The improving POLE STAR (8) showed stamina battling back to score by a nose on his first try tackling this trip at Haydock last time. Trained by Charlie Johnston and continues to head in the right direction. Dangerous from near foot of the weights. TRYFAN (7) could pose a challenge on the back of a solid runner-up effort over further attempting a competitive Newcastle AW handicap. PIQUE' (6) shaped nicely back in third at Haydock six days ago. Will appreciate a return to easier conditions. ASGARD'S CAPTAIN (3) might find the frame.
