STALLONE has slowly slipped down the weights and showed signs of a resurgence when runner-up at Ayr last month with After John well behind. It could be his turn again today given Kilconquhar has been raised 5lb for winning over track and trip with Rose Bandit behind. Absolute Dream is usually thereabouts at this level but Ustath drops back down in class and makes more appeal.
