Verdict
Both Ascot Day and Comprise scored on the all-weather earlier and have looked high enough in the weights since. Trick of The Light failed to cope with a 4lb rise for winning at Bath when runner-up at the same track last time while Archer's Arrow has only won maiden race so far. It remains to be seen how Boundsy fares raised 2lb for winning at Chester with Tallinski behind but HAROME can race off the same mark as when successful at Ripon last month and Roger Fell’s charge should be in the mix once again.
