POLAR FOREST was 0-22 until his last four runs, since when the previously consistent sort has posted two wins and two seconds. Extremely impressive last time over the Newcastle mile, he is worth staying with despite his welter burden as he looks progressive at the age of four. Brown Pete is a leading contender off a career-low mark with Shirley Teasdale taking off a useful further 5lb whilst Uplifted, rather in-and-out so far, is respected if at his best. Incurs Four Faults has place claims off bottomweight but Remember Rocky looks a stronger danger. An easy winner last time at Ayr, a first win since 2011, a repeat of that form would put him right in the picture, especially as he receives no penalty for that smooth success.
