Novoman dropped back to 6f at Pontefract and was a very unlucky loser. To add insult to injury he's been raised 5lb but should still get involved. MUTAHAADY has progressed with every run and had a bit to spare at Epsom. He's been put up 8lb put his young rider's claim partly compensates and a four-timer beckons. Richard Fahey has won two of the last three of these and Andok looks a very nice prospect for next season after his two victories, the latest over this track and trip when still looking green. Himself overcame trouble in-running to land a Windsor maiden and looks on a fair mark while Cotinga stayed on very strongly to lead close home over 6f at Lingfield.
