PRESIDENT SCOTTIE (6) has proven disappointing this season as demonstrated by his sixth place finish hurdling in latest. Too early to give up on just yet and receiving a nice handicap could be at best. SAINT DAVY (1) usually races among more esteemed company. Produced a solid third on return at Windsor last time and is well positioned to warrant thought. AYIKO (3) arrives off the back of just one chase start when second of four. Returns to a more suitable trip and must be feared. UPFORDEBATE (7) brings prolific form. Goes up against a better calibre of opponent on this occasion and deserves close consideration.
