Moral Issue was engaged to run at Newcastle yesterday but has been raised a harsh-looking 12lb for his earlier win at Beverley. CARA'S REQUEST carries a penalty after dead-heating for first at Musselburgh during the week with Perfect Words back in fourth but this looks no tougher so he's gets a tentative vote. Orpsie Boy and Whipphound were both placed on the Polytrack last time without threatening the winner while Lil Sophella has a shout on her recent second at Leicester.
