Runswick Days, who pulled up in two starts at this level in May, reappeared last month with a comprehensive victory at Kelso when well supported. The assessor has handed him a massive 16lb rise so this will be more difficult. Cheat The Cheater won two handicaps on soft ground in February but couldn't manage a hat-trick on very heavy ground at Hexham the following month and hasn't been seen subsequently. MISTER DON pulled up in Runswick Bay's Kelso victory but did much better over this track and trip next time and providing the ground remains good he can get back to winning ways. West Of The Edge is hardly consistent but capable of a big run at his best.
