With five seconds in his last six runs, nobody could begrudge Lastkingofscotland a victory but he's starting to creep up the weights again. Mazovian isn't badly treated on his best form and should figure in a race that isn't nearly as competitive as the numbers suggest but it could be worth taking a chance that NORTH CENTRAL is on a going day. Ruth Carr's charge has two ways on running so it may not pay to take his woeful effort over C&D last time too literally and he still has the ability to win at this level.
