Go Kart was conceding 11lb to Strategic Force when scoring narrowly last month with My Good Brother held in third. The runner-up was closing fast at the line and can reverse the form on the revised terms. AGGRESSION won here in November before being disqualified for causing interference after finishing runner-up to today's rival Oneoveryou early last month. He failed to last out over 6f last time and can get back on the winning trail. The winner has subsequently finished a close third to Geological over 6f but was scoring between two runs over a mile so is likely to find this on the short side. The very consistent Danz Gift is closely tied in with several of these but is still 9lb higher than his last victory while Cappadocia has had 50 career starts and only two over the minimum trip. Complicit has dropped to a very low mark and should be taking advantage soon though he's held by several of these on recent form.
