Young Fire won nicely at Redcar but is raised 7lb and upped in class. Newbury winner Molls Memory is another facing a more difficult task today but TOMFRE won in this grade before going in again over track and trip. It could pay to stick with Ralph Beckett’s charge in his current form given Revich recorded an earlier double at Chester and remains 6lb higher while Tranchee’s earlier win at the track came over a shorter trip, though he’s since finished ahead of Aplomb over 6f here. Punchbowl Flyer is another upped in distance on the back of a double over 6f.
