ORIENTAL PRINCE (1) scored last start at Haydock Park over 1410m after he was in the firing line on the corner. Form over this journey is strong, boasting three wins from five starts. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Leading contender. HURT YOU NEVER (6) proved too strong two runs ago at this track. Not as effective last time out when fifth over 1000m at Carlisle, beaten 4.5 lengths after being in contention on the turn. Must raise the bar but a big run is on the cards. ILLUSIONIST (3) returned from a spell a month ago when he was beaten 5 lengths into eighth over 1020m at Southwell All Weather. Won't find this as tough so he can make amends. MINNIE WILDES (4) failed to threaten when fresh from a spell last time out, beaten 6 lengths into tenth over 1020m at Southwell All Weather. Has ability and shapes as a top-three chance.
