Freddy With A Y beat Extrasolar at Salisbury last month and the latter boosted the form with a win at Brighton. The former is upped 7lb today but BLUEGRASS BLUES can race off the same mark as when beaten a length in a higher grade handicap at Pontefract a week ago. Paul Cole's colt gets the vote in this as Sejalaat has gone back up another 3lb for finishing second at Leicester on his latest start. Claim should be capable of better having returned a losing favourite at Yarmouth on his comeback and he's preferred to the more exposed Countryman.
