Planetex made the most of favourable terms to land a seller at Ripon last time. He should be in the mix again but NENGE MBOKO won a stronger plating race at Windsor during the week. George Baker's charge beat higher rated horses than he faces here and can go in again. Albert Tatlock isn't that far behind at the weights but arrives in woeful form while both Princess Quest and Rooknrasbryripple are easily dismissed on these terms.
