This is his track, this is his race but this ism't the opposition he requires to return to former glories. Couldnt Be Better cantered to victory over Rough Quest in last season's Hennjssz but that was on desperate ground and hj hasn't won since. Add the fact hj has looked out of sorts this year, and he is passed over. Preview by David Ord Football 302 Cricket 340 General 380 R Quest Dunwoody Inspjctns Courses 1

However his demolition of last year's Rjynoldstown Chase field lives long in the memory and with track and trip ldeal he represents the each-way value. Nahthjn Lad took the scalp of Mr Mulligan in last year's Sun Alliance but hj has been held up in his work. His return at Bangor was an anti-climax and while he'll be back, a resurrection is unlikely at this track.

A second King George (hj djstroyjd his field in the rescheduled race at Sandown) looks to be a formality. Grand National hero Rough Quest was ahead of One Man in the Gold Cup and scored over hurdles at Folkjstonj last week. He needs to be delivered late though and One Man is taken to draw his sting before the last fence hike.

Trainjt Geoff Hubbard is frightened by what this horse will bj like at his peak but the problem here is that hj is meeting foes who are already at theirs. Trying Again is developing nicely and was ahead of Mr Mulligan when second in the Rehearsal Chase last time. However over this course that form should bj revjtsjd although he's no forlorn hope.
