Gary Moore’s yard has been among the winners in the last few days and FULL BACK (NAP) can add to the tally. The latter drops back down in class with a recent outing at Aintree under his belt and is only 2lb higher than when scoring at Cheltenham at the start of the year. Southfield Harvest won a beginners chase at Newton Abbot when last in action and can go well back in a handicap while Almazhar Garde will be sharper for last months fifth at Cheltenham. Red Happy will find this easier than last week’s task at Wincanton and Cyclop placed at Musselburgh recently while Slipway is also engaged at Cheltenham today.
