Kenny George is 7lb higher than when successful at Fontwell last season but wasn’t disgraced on his return to action on the Flat. Outisaid is another to consider with Lorcan Williams taking off 5lb but Mr Washington has a bit to prove at present. POKER MASTER tried to make all in a juvenile contest at Sedgefield two weeks ago and was only caught on the run-in. The longer trip is an obvious concern but he gets 17lb weight-for-age allowance against modest opposition.
