FRANK N FAIR has been on a roll in similar races and though raised 7lb since a recent course and distance success can complete the hat-trick with William Featherstone again claiming the same. Fifi L'amour should get closer today, however, and Follow The Tracks led until the last at Exeter last month and is only 2lb higher. Onwiththeparty and Spanish Fork are hard to win with and none of the others make much appeal on recent efforts.
