We said6th of 6, beaten 12 at 6/1
FILANDERER 5/1
FILANDERER at 5/1, Hughie Morrison and Sean Bowen, looks the most likely of these. He has won here twice, handles the ground, with 2 wins from 4 on it and gets a trip he has won over.
The one worry is long absence.
The dangers are TOOTHLESS at 9/1 (after a wind operation) and JUST OVER LAND at 13/2.
