One For Harry does have form on heavy going and will be all the better for last month’s fifth at Carlisle - he’s been dropped 2lb since. Tawseef has won twice on the Flat this year alongside hurdles victories at Cartmel and Kelso. He’ll handle the surface but his latest success came over a mile further off a 10lb lower mark. CLAN LEGEND reverted to hurdles with a wide-margin win at Hexham. He’s gone up 9lb since but the ground is the key with him and he has it in his favour again. Quids In is no forlorn hope if handling the slight step up in trip but Its'afreebee has a lot to prove nowadays.
