Shoudhavenownbettr won over 2m4f here earlier in the month but was then comprehensively beaten in a seller at Taunton - he has a bit to prove now. Rivermouth finished a long way ahead of Glamourous Gg over 3m2f here last time but was well beaten himself, while Only Hope continues to creep up the weights despite failing to get her head in front. Her rider's claim negates her latest rise, however, and she should go close. Kings Story can't be ignored, despite racing from out of the weights, but a chance is taken on REG'S RUBY. The five-year-old has been taking on better company, though will have to be ridden with more restraint here if she is to see out this longer trip.
