CURRENT EVENT landed a Kempton handicap and couldn't handle an 8lb rise in better company later. This is his grade and another success is on the cards. Sew On Target went up 7lb for his Chepstow victory and couldn't cope when sent to Cheltenham last month but should be much more at home here. Pure Faith has gone backwards and is better handicapped over hurdles but neither Owen Glendower nor West With The Wind are out of this as they have regularly competed at a higher level.
