A weak handicap and PHYSICS should go close again despite carrying 6lb extra for last week’s win at Kempton. Captain Ryan’s earlier win at Wolverhampton came over the minimum trip while Cool Strutter scored at Windsor in August but has a poor strike rate on the all-weather as does Toolatetodelegate. Terri Rules was well beaten by the selection last time but Shymay slides further down the weights and may finish closer.
