Winner over an extended 2m5f at Kelso (good-to-soft) in April and best effort in two starts since came when runner-up over 2m4f at Hexham (good) last time out. Stepping up in distance.

Forecasts

Max Do Brazil (15/8), Pray For A Rainbow (15/8), Mrs Vonn (3/1), Hartside (9/2)

PRAY FOR A RAINBOW ran well when fourth at Bangor last time and he can register a victory in the concluding handicap chase. Mrs Vonn finished a close second on her latest start and she is taken to finish runner-up stepping up in trip while third place can go to Max Do Brazil who is making his debut over fences.
