Mr Andros is upped 7lb after finally getting his head in front when winning at Chelmsford and it took Loveatfirstsight 14 attempts to lose her maiden tag with a victory at Kempton last time. Tigerfish landed a double at the track early this year but remains 5lb higher and preference is for LUDUAMF. He was runner-up in a claimer here in August and this looks no tougher with Rossa Ryan taking 7lb off his back. Black Truffle looks no nearer winning despite slipping further down the weights but Lucky Di finished closer last time.
