RUNSWICK RELAX (NAP) has been raised 10lb since an easy course and distance victory but his yard continues in great form and he may well capable of defying the extra. Bollin Line also won in a higher grade at Catterick last month but is looking high enough in the weights now. This may be too far for Captain Sharpe while Runswick Days and Crown And Glory have long lay-offs to overcome. Sendiym has fallen to a fair mark but is on a long losing run.
