Take note Weyburn was due to run at Worcester on Tuesday night off bottom weight over hurdles but will carry top weight over fences if coming here. THINGER LICHT has been beaten the last three times after hacking up at Fontwell in February but has plenty in his favour. He's been beaten over further the last thrice and now reverts to a more suitable 2m4f trip, has his ground and sports blinkers for the first time. He receives 1lb from his main threat in Hinton Road and is taken to get back on the winning trail. Hinton Road, another better away from testing conditions, should be on the premises despite being raised 2lb for a solid Market Rasen second to Gold Ingot. Degooch is also blinkered for the first time for Johnny Farrelly who has secured the services of Noel Fehily for the Gamut gelding who completes the shortlist.
