My Brother Sylvest was taken out of a similar contest at Chepstow yesterday but still has a double penalty to carry here, though Conor O'Farrell takes off 3lb. What's Occurin won at Market Rasen in August and was beaten far at Uttoxeter last month, though has been put up a further 5lb since. My Jay Dee should win more races but faces a stiff task on his reappearance, while Daring Origyn, Texas Holdem and Dune Shine have also been out of action for a few months. GLINGERBANK hasn't won for a couple of years but was second over C&D off a higher mark in March and his two recent runs suggest he retains plenty of ability. Nicky Richards' 11-year-old may be the one to beat today.
