AL KHERB drops a further pound and is eased slightly in grade again after finishing fourth here eight days ago. He continues to give the impression that he’s better than form figures would suggest and Billy Garritty is one of the more experienced conditionals riding in this. Lord Caprio has won around here but was beaten in a seller at Cartmel at the start of the month but Molly Whuppie and Legal Beagle were second and third behind Poucor here two weeks ago and should be thereabouts again.
