Formscan  - Bunker Bay has been thereabouts in this grade the last twice, most recently taking the silver medal home at Market Rasen, and is one to watch. Musselburgh scorer Beat The Retreat isn't the most reliable and it might be best to side with SHADOWFAX OF ROHAN. Patrick Neville's inmate justified favouritism to make it two from three for the yard over fences at Southwell and can transfer that form to hurdles to go in again.
