Forgot To Ask has won four times over fences, including last time at Stratford, but was well beaten on his only previous visit to this track when racing off a lower mark. Railway Muice has each-way claims from the foot of the weights, as does Kelso winner Exit To Where who has a chance of reversing Ayr running with Hereditary Rule on 5lb better terms. PRESENTANDCOUNTING tries 3m for the first time but the handicapper is finally starting to show him some leniency and he was very impressive over 2m4f here last summer. Charlie Uberalles is bred for fences and it’s interesting that Dianne Sayer is throwing him in at the deep end on his chasing bow.
