MOSTALLIM carries 5lb extra for winning at Yarmouth but this is a weak contest and Mick Appleby’s charge can go in again. Viola Park landed a double on the all-weather early in the year but has yet to win on Turf and the latter comment also applies to Global Acclamation, who has just the one win in 30 attempts. Soldier's Son, Holdenhurst and Alfies Watch slip further down the weights.
