Corrib Drift is set to go up 5lbs in future handicaps following his latest effort when chasing home Howle Hill at Fontwell but he may have been flattered by that and a better bet looks to be Kadam, who is preferred to Here Comes Harry. The last mentioned lost no caste in defeat behind Galtee View at Hereford last time and has to be respected on that evidence off a nice racing weight. Kinkeel has bits and pieces of form but remains a maiden and would probably prefer a softer surface, while Faddad is hard to recommend on recent form. John Foley comes from a yard that has to be reckoned with in this grade and could be of interest but Kadam is a consistent performer and looks to have been found a suitable opportunity to open his account over fences.
