Vivernus has been raised 5lb for last month’s course and distance success while Swansway and Hussar Ballad filled the places over 1m4f here a fortnight ago with the former taken to confirm running. Reassurance slips further down the weights and is back up in trip while Seek The Moon attempts 1m2f for the first time after placing over a mile on her handicap debut. But FALDO (NAP) is also lightly-raced having won in Germany before joining Iain Jardine and struggling in the soft ground over 1m4f at Hamilton. He’ll be better suited to today’s conditions and gets the nod now handicapping for the first time.
