It could pay to stick with the improving BARNABY (3) who remained unbeaten here when completing a course and distance hat-trick by a nose 25 days ago. A further 7lb rise in the weights will demand more. Definitely progressive and has the bonus of strong course form. NOVAK (1) also goes well here and is an obvious danger after a commanding victory over 7f at Southwell last time. KING'S SCHOOL (8) finished runner-up behind the main selection last month and cannot be ignored having subsequently gone close here again. CROWN'S LADY (10) also needs to be considered.
