See Double You was a runner-up over track and trip in January and the Irish raider went on to win at Naas on his latest start. But he's been upped 13lb for that success and Too Cool To Fool is 15lb higher than when scoring over 2m here last month. The latter has since won over hurdles at this track so should go well again but preference is for BADGER FOOT. Lucinda Russell's charge has been placed over 3m on a couple of occasions since winning over today's trip at Newcastle in December and gets the vote back over 2m4f. Heart O Annandale has no worthwhile form and was due to run here yesterday.
