Touch Back is upped a further 5lb as he goes in search of a treble and You Say What has been raised the same amount after landing a novices handicap at Exeter. The former is preferred in this grade while Ballyrock has a shout on his recent second at Chepstow though he's back up 4lb. Mustmeetalady would figure with a repeat of his earlier fourth at Carlisle but SYBARITE posted a much better effort on his latest start when not beaten far at Ascot. Ryan Hatch's allowance could make the difference in this and Nigel Twiston-Davies' charge gets the nod.
