Arlecchino's Arc scored at Chelmsford recently and is only 3lb higher today but Gerry The Glover has been raised 5lb for winning over track and trip. MUSIC MAJOR is back on a winning mark and, having found only one too good over course and distance last time, Mike Attwater’s charge looks set to get his head back in front. Enmeshing’s earlier success at Wolverhampton came over a longer trip while Duchess Of Avon was placed over a mile here last time without threatening and Billie Beane is preferred.
