Bringitonboris has been threatening a return to winning ways and is fitted with a visor but MAKEEN (NAP) is due to be raised 4lb for last week’s second over track and trip and can go one better with an apprentice taking a further 3lb off his back. Pacino won a lower grade contest here a fortnight ago while Broctune Red, Musahaba and Key Look all won their penultimate starts before beaten off higher marks. Colleague is the least exposed and debuts on the all-weather for his first start handicapping but Traveller hasn’t won since landing a division of this contest last year.
