Runaiocht has been raised 9lb for landing a lowly Class 7 event here last month but Viola Park is upped only 3lb for winning at Wolverhampton. Frozen Lake found one too good last time carrying a penalty for an earlier course and distance success with MR MAC a close-up third and Mezmaar further behind. Peter Hedger’s charge re-opposes on better terms today and beat Viola Park here at the end of last year so gets the nod. Masquerade Bling has had plenty of chances and returned a losing favourite last time and Coverham has yet to win in 18 attempts now.
