Verdict

Deal A Dollar was sent off favourite at Wolverhampton last time but found one too good and has been raised a further 3lb. WISE RULER (NAP) has been upped 6lb for winning a novices race over 1m2f here last month but with further progress expected handicapping for the first time with this longer trip also likely to suit, he looks capable of notching-up another success for a yard in red-hot form. Proton is another upped in distance and is less exposed than Natty Night and Battle Of Wills, who both came up short off today’s marks last time.
