Worth A King's drops back in distance but can still get into contention. Stopped Out needed a longer trip to get his head back in front and has gone up 7lb for his recent win, but Grandad Bill won over today's trip at Musselburgh last season and should be spot on now after a recent spin at the same track. However, a chance is taken on GLINGERBANK here. Nicky Richards' charge is lightly raced considering his age and looked in need of the outing on his recent comeback. Much better is expected here racing off what looks a decent mark.
