AHYAKNOWYERSELF has done well since arriving from Ireland and though he probably wouldn't have beaten Trop Fort at Newton Abbot he was still there when falling at the last and would have finished second. He can gain compensation though this looks a tight little race with the lightly-raced winning point-to-pointer Next Exit still capable of making further progress and receiving 7lb from the selection. He may do better than his more exposed stablemate Piment D'Estruval and though Wayward Glance won very easily over 2m5f at Worcester this could prove on the short side.
