A penalty and rise in class proved beyond Sirajiah at Yarmouth last time having won at Windsor earlier. RURAL CELEBRATION has been competing in better company without success and has tumbled 13lb down the weights since the start of the season. An apprentice takes a further 7lb off her back today and David O’Meara’s mare may well come out best. Penny Pot Lane remains 6lb higher than when scoring at Ripon in August and Sakhee's Jem’s earlier success at Yarmouth came in a maiden race.
