WEIGHTWATCHER: LAFAN won off a handicap mark of 78, his rating is now down 13lb to 65.
LONGEST TRAVELLER: CAREY STREET trained by Mrs L Stubbs, Malton, 145 miles.
GOLDSMITH has turned the corner since joining this yard, bagging back-to-back Lingfield handicaps during the winter and shaped better than the bare result back from a break when third there 13 days ago He clearly remains in top form and should prove a tough nut to crack off the same mark, provided he proves as effective on this surface. Give A Little Back is also in good heart at present but Carey Street has dipped to an attractive mark and rates the main danger
