Parys Mountain is just 2lb higher than when landing a Class 3 handicap at York though that was on fast going. Tim Easterby also runs last year's winner Our Charlie Brown, who hasn't been in the best of form but is now 3lb lower. PROUD ARCHI can take this as he has been in good form this summer winning a Class 3 at Thirsk in August but Mujassam does better on faster ground or the all-weather. Inviolable Spirit hasn't done as well as expected since scoring at Leicester in April while Weld Al Emarat hasn't won since making a successful debut in 2014.
