BAYSTON HILL (NAP) is on his lowest mark for quite a while. This is his track and trip and William Cox takes off a handy 3lb. Boasty beat a big field here last month but was earlier beaten by Sammy Sunshine at Wolverhampton. Pillars Of Earth won here in November and later at Lingfield while King’s Castle is eased in grade and holds Smokey Malone on latest running. No Such Luck has found some form but Pips Tune looks a bigger danger having won his last three starts around here. He’s a front-runner so drawing the inside berth again is a big plus.
