JARLATH carries only a pound more than when successful in this last year and warned up with a fair second at Fontwell over a trip too far. Foundation Man has dropped to a lenient mark but remains out of sorts. Nobel Leader is fairly treated if fully wound up and Modeligo is usually thereabouts in this grade. West Wizard won at Market Rasen in September and was still in touch when unseating his rider next time at Ffos Las. Too Much Too Soon won over course and distance in May but failed to justify favouritism at Carlisle last month when 4lb lower and it’s more than three years since teenager Moorlands Jack won off a mark this high. Mr Satco is starting to creep up the weights again and is not one to rely on.
