In current form BEN RUMSON will take some stopping. The handicapper has given him another 6lb after his latest win so this will be tougher but he should be happier still back to 1m4f. High Kicker has been running well enough and with an ease in her mark she ought to be firmly in the thick of things here. Lamh Ar Lamh has seen her mark fall quite rapidly and with conditions here more suitable than last time she could be ready to take a major step forward.
