ETON MES showed much improved form when switched to a handicap at Uttoxeter 21 days ago and looks open to further progress despite a 5 lb rise. He can follow up. At The Oche got back on track when second at Leicester last month and looks a danger upped in trip. Thankyouandplease is capable if on a going day, while Star of Diamonds could do better back over hurdles.
