Verdict
A couple of these bid for a hat-trick with PARIS SNOW preferred to Deinonychus. The former landed a double over 1m6f at Doncaster last week with victory in an apprentices' race and is unpenalised as a consequence but Bill Knight's charge is upped 9lb after scoring at Leicester on his latest start. Arantes came up short once again at Chepstow last time despite Daniel Cremin's allowance and Oracle Boy remains 7lb higher than his win at Wolverhampton in October.
