Causey Arch landed a double during the summer but is now 7lb higher than his latest win at Ayr in July. DARK CRYSTAL (NAP) is preferred as she may have been a well beaten third here last Saturday but drops down a grade for this and Linda Perratt’s mare can confirm running with Crazy Tornado. The latter had earlier beaten Dasheen and Tectonic at Carlisle while Taking Libertys went close at the same track recently though today’s going may prove a problem for him.
