Billy Blade will like the going but has rather lost his way again of late. Matrow's Lady could figure if fully wound-up and a similar remark applies to Loughalder while James Cowley's claim reduces bottom weight Copper Carroll's burden by a further 5lb. But the Newton Abbot fourth still looks to close in the handicap to ON ALERT, who can bounce back from a narrow defeat over 3m2f at Huntingdon on this slower surface. Nothing Is Forever has hinted at ability in the past and could run into a place off his current mark.
