Avithos has gone up 6lb for winning on heavy going at Fakenham but has winning form off a higher mark in the past. However, today’s trip will take some getting and CALARULES is preferred having finished second at Doncaster last month when Mark Gillard’s charge, who is 2lb worse off, was more than six lengths adrift. Mamoo is held on the form book and The Reaping Race, who has a poor strike-rate, has been chasing since arriving from Ireland.
