FUNDING DEFICIT is one of the more experienced and David Barron looks to have found him a good opportunity here. He came up short on unfavourable terms with a higher rated rival at Ripon last time but will take some catching in this if allowed his own way up front from a low draw. Rock Up and Niceonemyson have plenty to find with the selection at the weights and Dual Mac may find things happening a bit quickly after a couple of starts over 7f. Dennis is expected to have come on for a debut third at Redcar and may provide the biggest threat unless the newcomer Jiminy is above average.
