Methag was a very disappointing favourite at Hexham a month ago. Dell Oro seems to have lost his way but Neverbeen To Paris has placed the last twice and makes more appeal than chaser Jen's Boy. SUBWAY SURF has been dropped 5lb since last running in a handicap. His maiden and novice form looks solid enough and he can return from a break to halt the winning run of Jumping Cats, who steps up a grade and has been raised a further 8lb. The unexposed Glasha's Peak looks best of the rest.
