Mr Cool Cash and Dark Confidant have been going well recently but both are likely to find this plenty sharp enough. Make On Madam falls into the same category whilst also looking fully weighted. TICKS THE BOXES has more going for him off a mark 8lb lower than for his victory earlier this year and having shaped well on his last two starts. The way he came home at Carlisle last time suggested he was ready for the step back to this trip and he has a capable rider on board.
