DEW POND scored over track and trip three weeks ago and this doesn't look much tougher. Tim Easterby's charge can defy a 3lb rise and go in again. Hookergate Grammar finished ahead of Cosmic Statesman when third over 2m at Beverley last time while Nickscreamcracker won a selling handicap over 1m4f at the same track last month. Littlemissparton went close on her handicap bow over today's distance at Chelmsford and is not out of this with further progress on the cards.
