The unpredictable Reputation popped up at 25/1 here in between a couple of poor efforts but Major Pusey would prefer some cut in the ground having gone close at Haydock last time. Storm Cry is upped in class on the back of a string of placed efforts and Farleigh Mac has been raised 6lb for winning a Class 5 sprint at Windsor. HIGHLAND ACCLAIM was narrowly beaten at Thirsk recently having slipped down the weights since scoring over track and trip last year when beating Ashpan Sam. He remains on a winning mark and can go one better.
