Toby Eley impressed when getting REGULAR INCOME up late to score at Pontefract and the combination can back up that workmanlike success. A 5lb rise seems fair and he's already proven on soft ground and also boasts a course win. The majority of his rivals can have a case made for them in what is a competitive affair with Glacial Fox, a Beverley winner latest and one who very much remains open to progression, suggested as the main danger off a tempting handicap mark. Miss Ranger also has claims from the foot of the weights if forgiven her latest effort while Cornborough and Snookered, both fit from hurdling, also enter the equation.
