Koybig has dropped to his lowest mark since completing a track and trip hat-trick at this time in 2017. He should be winning again soon though Never Back Down has been very busy and led for a long way when tackling 7f on Friday. He was well beaten on his only start over this trip though that was on soft ground at Punchestown. Boasty showed his liking for the surface by scoring over the trip at Kempton last month and has changed yards while Time And Money has dropped to a more feasible mark after three runs over further. Ecliptic Moon came here for just the second time and was stepping up to this trip when gaining a shock victory three weeks ago. He's up 5lb and doesn't have Sam Ewing's 7lb claim to help this time. JACK BERRY HOUSE wasn't winning out of turn last week after two narrow defeats. He's up 4lb but has the benefit of Siobahn Routledge's 7lb claim so looks well in to complete a quick double.
