TRAC defied a 9lb rise for a comfortable victory at Catterick when making all here last month for which he's up another 7lb. Coolmoyne, who was beaten almost six lengths in the latter race, should get closer without reversing the form. Tom Creen has won twice over the course and distance this winter but looked a bit high in the weights on a return visit in January. Ribeye prefers a bit further but the champion jockey will ensure there's no hanging about while Zara's Universe is 0-22, though wasn't beaten far when favourite at Market Rasen on Sunday.
