Right To Rule receives 5lb from the older LOOKING ON but he is more exposed than Venetia Williams' five-year-old over hurdles and we expect the latter to add to his victory at Plumpton. Yes Daddy made a promising start over hurdles behind Discovery Bay at Wetherby but the winner has been beaten since while Lone Foot Laddie disappointed at Hexham following a third at Musselburgh. It's difficult to see any of the others getting involved at the business end.
