Money For Nothing was positively ridden last time at Plumpton but picked off again in the closing stages and is now 0-30. ROXYFET won here on Boxing Day and again when second at Ayr the following week. Though only third in this last year, he is 2lb lower now and should be hard to beat with Finian O’Toole taking off 3lb. Frankie Ballou is 0-21 and rarely runs two races alike while Duhallowcountry appears to have lost the plot. Black Kettle is still 4lb higher than when second over course and distance in September and was tailed off on his return to action.
