Duc de Seville has been placed the last twice but is starting to creep up the weights again. Born To Reign is proving equally expensive to follow while Wild Desert has gone right off the boil since beating Born To Reign and Strictly The One, among others, over course and distance in July. GRAMS AND OUNCES won twice over hurdles last month and was far from disgraced back on the Flat at Chelmsford earlier this month. Ground and trip look ideal and he'll be hard to keep out of the frame off this sort of mark. Petrify and Awesome Rock will probably be thereabouts again without being quite good enough.
