OCHOS RIOS was beaten only a head over course and distance a week ago and can race off the same mark today. Earlier winning form here gives him the beating of Di's Gift, a runner-up over 2m at Chelmsford a fortnight ago and placed here before that. Albert Boy has plenty to prove on this surface judged on his poor efforts to date but Clayton Hall has placed at the track and should appreciate the return to 1m4f
