MAJEED has been raised 3lb for winning at Chelmsford but can effectively race off a lower mark with an apprentice's allowance taken into account. He can go in again at the chief expense of Jacob Cats, a course and distance winner in March and upped in class at Lingfield last time. Masterpaver is finding life difficult off his current mark having won five times last year and Double Discount remains 7lb higher than his win over track and trip in October.
