Verdict
Tantamount has been running well at Perth over the summer but a further weight rise hasn't done him any favours. Northern Acres had a run on the Flat here earlier in the month and could figure but Rocking Blues, Ballyreesode and Romany Ryme are returning from a summer break, though the latter pair have won over this trip unlike Indepub. FINDING YOUR FEET ran his best race so far at Ffos Las 11 days ago when beaten less than a length. The handicapper has left him on the same mark and, reunited with the champ, Jonjo O'Neill's five-year-old can open his account today ahead of Hexham third Symphonick.
