Expect the initial forecast to change if the scheduled rains arrive, which will do no harm to the prospects of the very interesting HEREBY (NAP). Ralph Beckett's filly is coming along really well and landed a competitive Chester handicap on just her fourth start. The runner-up has won since and the daughter of Pivotal is already proven on soft ground so she makes considerable appeal receiving weight all round. Cieren Fallon takes a handy 5lb off Busy Street, who is respected off top weight, and the likes of the consistent Jabbaar and Final are also noteworthy along with the three-year-old Doctor Cross, although all three have found winning difficult this term.
