Race preview
HIWAY ONE O THREE was a 17-length winner at Carlisle eight days ago and the five-year-old is very hard to oppose because he does not have to carry a penalty today, which means that he is 12lb well in. Thirtyfourstitches is an obvious danger to the selection having won twice over C&D in recent months, while Justified is the pick of the remaining field.
