Tobeeornottobee finished in front of Hey Jazzy Lady when scoring at Ayr last month. He’s 4lb higher today and one of the handicap newcomers may improve past him with HARD SOLUTION preferred. The latter found only World Order, rated 80, too good in novice company at Pontefract and an apprentice’s allowance further helps his cause. Four Wheel Drive was second at Southwell recently and Mr Diamond went close over today’s trip at Beverley before well beaten over 6f. March For Men and I'm Billy Murphy are others returning to the minimum trip with the former preferred.
