Fitzwilly has been raised 5lb for winning over track and trip last time when beating Gavlar and Teak. The latter pair where not beaten far and re-oppose on much better terms. Deauville Dancer rattled-up a hat-trick last year but would need to be forgiven a below par effort when favourite at Newcastle last week and ARTY CAMPBELL (NAP) looks a safer bet. He won at Wolverhampton before finding only one too good at Ascot on his latest start and has an easier task in this. Laughing Jack ended last year with a win over 1m6f at Carlisle but hasn't raced since August and course and distance winner Kashgar makes more appeal off his current mark.
