Soft ground looks the key for recent Sandown winner Majestic Hero and he won't get that here. Stablemate Union Rose has her fair share of weight but has been taking on strong opposition. Sunset Sail is preferred to stable companion Geological though has been racing over further. Squats won over this trip at Haydock four weeks ago, beating PROFITABLE by a neck. But the latter can race off his correct mark in this and is fancied to turn the tables with William Buick taking over the reins from a claimer. Bowson Fred should reverse Carlisle running with the penalised King Crimson but whether he'll be good enough for a race like this is another matter.
