Red Inca has yet to show any improvement for a slide down the weights but is thrown in on his best form and eased in grade again. Ballyvogue won at Kelso in November and was only beaten half-a-length over 2m4f here last time and Urban Kode kept on well for pressure here last month when second to Claude Carter, though was behind Endeavor at the track on an earlier start. HONOURABLE GENT (NAP) had just cruised to the front when falling in Claude Carter's race here on his reappearance. He won twice on good going last season and has untapped potential so can recoup losses.
