PRESENT FLIGHT (NAP) is obviously on an upward curve and had the proverbial ton in hand when scoring over a longer trip at Musselburgh three weeks ago. He'll be kept going as long as the ground doesn't deteriorate and looks set for a third win in four starts, despite a further 6lb rise. Doktor Glaz and winning pointer Cul Dealga look interesting recruits to chasing but Ueueteotl suffered a heavy fall at Ayr on his reappearance and Dabinett Moon is struggling to adapt to racing under Rules. Solway Legend has had his limitations exposed recently and Free Of Charge remains out of sorts but Wild Bill is still unexposed and can't be ignored.
