Lazy Sunday finished well ahead of Universal Brook when completing a double with a victory at Lingfield. But she’s 7lb higher today while KINGCORMAC has been raised 8lb for scoring at Hereford. However, that was only the latter’s third outing over fences and, with Harry Cobden keeping the winning partnership intact, he’s taken to confirm running with Magnificent Ben. The latter went close over a shorter trip earlier but Boys Of Wexford is now 10lb higher than when successful at Uttoxeter having placed subsequently.
