The three-year-old Peat Moss made it third-time lucky at Plumpton and get a handy weight-for-age allowance but we prefer those at the head of the weights on this sharper track. Roar has run well on the Flat since pulled up at Stratford while the returning Vinnie's Getaway starts off in handicaps at a realistic level. KARAKORAM has slipped down the ratings and is now only 3lb higher than for his sole victory over hurdles which came here just under a year ago on similar going. Hawridge Storm is unexposed but needs to find some improvement.
