COURT BY SURPRISE contested a valuable veterans contest when last seen in action at Sandown last month but had run well for a long way here over 3m2f prior to that. The selection has been dropped 3lb for that run when weakening on the run to the last and has won over C&D and off an 11lb higher mark in the past. Ericht represents leading connections and can put a poor effort behind him at Kempton last month by finishing runner-up here while Saint Are hails from a yard in form and was successful in a veterans chase here off a 1lb lower mark 12 months ago. 1.
