Glenamoy Lad beat Mont Kiara to score at Newmarket in September but the latter re-opposes on better terms. Kenny The Captain was beaten only a nose here last time and that looks stronger form than Tilly Trotter’s recent course and distance success while Right Touch is looking to reverse latest running with Doncaster third Bertiewhittle. The latter drops in class but has yet to win on the all-weather unlike stablemate HANDSOME DUDE (NAP), who scored over course and distance early this year and won again at Haydock during the summer. Only 2lb higher for this, David Barron’s sprinter gets the vote.
