CABALLERO went close to landing a gamble when runner-up over course and distance on his reappearance. He can go one better on this occasion and confirm running with third-placed Tommy G in the process. Keith Dalgleish’s charge is also preferred to Mi Capricho while Langholm ran well over a mile here on his return though has something to prove over this shorter trip. Coviglia also drops down in distance while Star Of St James has proven best on the all-weather so far and Inexplicable make his debut on Turf.
