LUCKY OUT didn't enjoy the rub of the green when sixth in a big field here last time so this C&D scorer can capitalise on a 2 lb lower mark at the chief expense of Lady Arwen who is also weighted to have a say. Vierson, Counterculture and Selective Power all command respect too in this open-looking handicap.
