Grace Harris appears to hold a strong hand in a modest opener. KARAKORAM has been surprisingly eased in the weights since a second to the in-form Highstakesplayer at Taunton 10 days ago and is now 2lb lower than for his last victory. Stable companion Justshortofabubble has gone up 5lb for a close second at the same track three weeks ago but Jack Martin claims that back. Camembert Electric has only gone up 2lb for a win at Wetherby but the quicker ground may not be ideal. Mind Hunter has gone up 3lb for finishing second at Doncaster but is preferred to Henri Le Bon of the others.
