Lough Kent won again over course and distance on Friday but that means he has a welter burden to carry in this. My Renaissance was also in action at the track two days ago, fading into fourth after leading over the last. Recent Flat winner Collodi may be aiming a little high but the booking of James King is a positive. FIOSRACH also has an accomplished amateur on board and he is probably the pick of the Moffatt legions at the weights having just been caught last time by Lough Kent. Despite a penalty, Back To Balloo should confirm Hexham running with Rockabilly Riot and looks the danger as Cinevator has been doing his winning between the flags.
