GONE WITH THE WIND is the obvious selection given he now looks set to make the most of a tumble down the weights. He just missed out at Musselburgh last time and won off an 8lb higher mark last season. Master Clockmaker is getting closer and finished runner-up at Wetherby on his latest start while On A Par was placed over a longer trip on his latest visit to the track in July. Regal Missile is still searching for that first win but is getting no nearer despite sliding down the handicap and the Yair Hill is best over 6f nowadays.
