MOZZARO beat a subsequent winner when scoring over a shorter trip here last month. Raised only 2lb, a chance is taken he stays this far. Croagh Patrick is another upped in trip having finished runner-up at Uttoxeter while Bignorm finished third in last year’s renewal but is 8lb higher today having won at Leicester subsequently. Coole Lion landed a double here last year and is back on a winning mark while Realms Of Fire scored over the fences back in May.
