THE BIG HOUSE has been raised only 3lb for winning at Catterick and having placed on his only previous outing in soft ground, Adrian Nicholl’s charge may well go in again. Forever A Lady won off a higher mark over 6f here during the summer and handles the surface but Be Bold has disappointed the last twice now. Explain won at this fixture last year but continues to struggle while God Of Dreams needs to step up on recent efforts and Cardaw Lily’s earlier placed form came over 6f. Stamp Of Authority is preferred to Dark Magic of the Irish contingent.
