Carli King has won twice at Leicester this season but looked in the handicapper's grip at Haydock last time. Take Of Shoc'S may need this but Riddlestown won over course and distance last month and could make a bold bid to defy a 7lb higher mark. Moleskin has claims on his form in the autumn but has disappointed the last twice. RUSSE BLANC has gone up in the weights again since his half-length second at Carlisle but has the best recent form on offer and Tom Scudamore's booking is a positive sign so he gets the nod.
