PROCEEDING comes here with a 5lb penalty for scoring over the course and distance on Monday, his first success, and may be good enough to complete a quick double. Lukoutoldmakezebak scored over 7f here last time and though having no problems with tonight’s trip he looks on a high enough mark. Troop wasn’t far behind the latter at Ripon and has been running well on Tapeta though keeps going up without winning. Rebel State is up 6lb for winning a Class 7 handicap here which looks a bit harsh while Puchita is 0-26.
