Beauport was raised 9lb for winning a Grade 3 hurdle at Sandown back in March and there should be more to come from him this season. But MR ONE MORE has the advantage of a recent outing having made a winning return with a victory at Fontwell last month on his first start after wind surgery. Lightly-raced for his age, he can defy a 2lb rise and confirm latest running with Vorashann. Champagne Court also posted a better effort at Fontwell last time and a tongue-tie is added to the usual cheekpieces while Jesuitique won a lower grade contest at Worcester recently and is 5lb higher. Broken Halo and Wildfire Warrior have plenty of scope handicapping for the first time on their seasonal debuts.
