Prove The Point appeared to find a mile to his liking when getting up close home last week. He's 4lb higher but should give another good account. FASTIDIOUS won here in May from 1lb higher and didn't get the best of runs a fortnight ago. He looks ready to go in again though another course and distance winner, Rosenborg Rider, has been running well enough to get involved despite being 9lb higher than last month's success. Bluesbreaker dropped back to the minimum to score last week and is 7lb higher while Nam has been left on the same mark despite a close third last month so should be in the mix. Leath Na Hoibre was having his first start since June 2016 when a close third in a handicap last month so should now be ready to do himself justice.
