Another Stowaway disappointed last season but is now 6lb lower than for his last victory. THE LATE LEGEND (NAP) finally took advantage of a tumbling mark to score at Warwick. He’s gone up 5lb since but is still well treated on his best form with regular pilot Luke Scott claiming 7lb. Tedham is another who has plummeted down the handicap but he is on a long losing run whereas Johnny B bolted up in lesser company at Chepstow last month. He has been raised 10lb but is still preferred to Templebredin and Ballymilan.
