WEATHER FRONT had few problems landing the odds at Hexham after a much-improved second at Carlisle a month earlier. He has a penalty to overcome here but should win again, though Raecius Felix is a likely improver and Flat winner Remember The Days wasn’t entirely disgraced when fourth at Sedgefield. Empire De Maulde showed promise at Wetherby at the start of the year but ran poorly here later, though still makes more appeal than stablemate Into The Breach and Point Break.
