Cursory Exam gained his second success over the extended 1m2f trip here in October but will be 7lb higher. CEALLACH and four-times track winner Dalvey fought out a tight finish three weeks ago when the former just prevailed. He'll be slightly worse off at the weights but is only a three-year-old and has the most scope so gets the nod to follow up. Cozone had produced a couple of good runs over the trip here in September but had to step-up to two miles to gain his first success on the track last week. Vischio has never won in eight starts here and may find the trip on the short side.
