Ernest GrayThe two frontrunners were 1st and 2nd when they met last time out and there’s a bigger change in the weights that should see the form reversed.Ernest Gray was carrying 12st 1lb at Market Rasen, 10lb more than Kiwi de Cotte – now he carries just 5lb more and is looking dangerous, clearly back to better form.talkSPORT BET Boosted Favourites30 minutes before the start of every UK & IRE race, we are boosting either the favourite or 2nd fav to win!Get the latest price boosts here18+.
