After another drying day at Sandown and, with just light rain forecast on Saturday, punters have taken the hint.
Totesport also cut Briery Fox from 20-1 into 16s and jockey Mark Bradburne is hoping that the Henry Daly-trained 11-year-old, who won a three-mile contest at Ascot last time, will get into the handicap.
Bradburne said: "He's a laid-back horse and doesn't like to do anything too quickly, but the handicapper has relented and if Roll Along doesn't run and the weights go up, that would suit us."
Meanwhile, Michael Hourigan confirmed that Church Island, who was second to Niche Market in the Powers Whiskey Irish Grand National at Fairyhouse on Easter Monday, will definitely take his place in Saturday's £165,000 Grade 3 race.
"He'll be on the boat," said Limerick trainer Hourigan. "He's come out of his last race well. He likes nice ground and, if he gets it, you'd like to think he'd have a good chance. Denis O'Regan, who won on him at Doncaster in February, will ride."
