Always Tipsy steps up to 3m for the first time but did have Claude Carter a long way behind when scoring over 2m4f here last month. Dun To Perfection was in good form prior to his run at Carlisle in November and may have benefited from a short rest but veteran SOLWAY SAM deserves some reward for his consistency. He has the beating of Ryton Runner on their run together behind Full Jack here last month and Ryan Day's allowance should see him in the mix again.
