HERE COMES LOUIE 9/2

HERE COMES LOUIE at 9/2, Roger Fell with Conor Whiteley taking off 5lb, is the one I would side with. He ran a big race off much the same mark, beaten 1.5L off 51 on 6 August, should be suited by the ground, placed once from 3 on it and has a telling booking — upgrade from a 11% rider to 17%.

The dangers are DEFENCE MISSILE at 6/1 (a course winner) and BARLEYBROWN at 9/4 (a course winner).
