Though School Fees has been declared a doubtful runner, the remaining six all have a chance including top-weight Moustache, who has been racing in much better company. Stablemate Karuga couldn't match strides with Chandigarh at Folkestone but Uncle Roger had a rough passage at Bath after scoring there earlier and is better than that. Full Support looked certain to be suited by an extra furlong after a strong late burst to score over the minimum at Thirsk and Redair is tried in a visor for the first time. PITT RIVERS found soft conditions ideal at Hamilton and, providing the ground remains similar here, this looks within his compass under a penalty as he's well handicapped.
