JUST FIVE beat Polar Auroras, who runs in the previous race, here last month and can race off a lower mark today with Raul Da Silva's claim taken into account. He can be forgiven his latest modest effort on the Fibresand and gets the nod. Harrys Yer Man and Stamp Duty have less valid excuses for recent poor runs having both won at this track last month and Hilbre Court will surely be taking advantage of his slide down the weights soon as he's been dropped another couple of pounds for this.
