Another modest heat can go to Ozzie Jones who faces inferior opposition under top weight. The 11-year-old showed he was in good heart when running out a convincing six-length winner in a similar event at Stratford last month and a reproduction should suffice. Wise Prince showed some improvement at the same track last time and can progress further but point-to-point winner Stacky Light is not the safest of conveyances and Fanfaron is likely to have his limitations exposed.
