Between The Waters has so far failed to take advantage of a plummeting mark but this is a weak handicap. Orsino remains out of sorts but, after finishing second at Uttoxeter, MACKIE DEE was closing on the leaders when unseating his rider at Hexham and probably has enough about him to give 6lb to Ffos Las winner Auld Sod, who is up 8lb. Pirate Sam will likely need this but is the most unexposed.
