Race preview
LAWTOP LEGEND has proven he has the stamina for this test in his hurdling career and he looks poised to mount a bold bid after staying on into third over 3m at Uttoxeter last month. Capricia (fourth) finished just behind the former on chase debut and she demands the utmost respect now the handicapper has dropped her a further 2lb. Master Sunrise has been edging in the right direction this term and could be worth keeping on side.
