LUCKY LUCKY MAN posted a much better effort encountering heavy ground for the first time when winning easily at Carlisle. He carries 6lb extra but is still preferred to stable companions Zap and Cameo Star. Novice winner Wahoo makes more appeal than stablemate Camacho Chief now handicapping for the first time while Han Solo Berger, Lady Anjorica and Corton Lass represent Keith Dalgleish but the former has a bit to find with the selection on earlier running. Bustam makes his handicap debut but Chester runner-up Kimifive is upped in class.
