Tahoo carries 6lb extra for winning at Nottingham last week but the soft ground is not ideal and it could be the turn of VAN GERWEN (NAP) today. The latter just missed out in heavy going over course and distance last time and scored off a similar mark here last season. Muatadel finished ahead of Gamesome when placed at Newcastle recently but Royal Brave remain 5lb higher than when successful at Musselburgh back in July. Escalating is not badly treated in his earlier winning form at Nottingham and drops in class while My Name Is Rio will relish the soft going.
