Ralph Beckett's bumper winner GNOMON (5) was no match for a useful prospect at Kempton last time out but should do better now back on turf for his handicap debut. The long galloping straight at Haydock ought to play to his strengths and he gets the nod over BONDI (7). The latter kept on strongly to land a handicap over this distance at Newmarket (July) and could have more to give with first-time cheekpieces up. PAPPA LOUIS (9) cannot be left out of the calculations following his fair runner-up effort at Yarmouth last time. ROGUE SEA (4) could find the frame.
