Formscan - Exeter scorer Coconut Twist and the runner-up drew 11 lengths clear of the third last month and another bold showing is forecast from the seven-year-old. However, a 6lb rise does demand more from Daisy Hitchins' gelding and it could be worth chancing the unexposed BABATUNDE. The son of Kalanisi caught the eye with how he travelled on his third-placed handicap bow over 3m at Taunton 22 days ago and today's drop in distance could see him opening his account. Wonderweasle is also noted.
