Oh Right has won four of his last seven over fences but a penalty means he will have to defy a new career-high mark to complete the hat-trick after recent victories at Cartmel and Sedgefield in a lesser grade. PEACHEY MOMENT has never won over 3m but has been successful twice around here over 2m4f and was third over course and distance last year. Though raised 6lb for his Bangor success, when Maddoxtown was a distant fourth, he's still well treated on his best form and can follow up. Lady Of Verona won at Hexham and Kelso in the spring but hasn't raced since tailed off at the latter track in May.
