Royal Connoisseur went close at Catterick in September and was just touched off on his reappearance at Thirsk. He should strip fitter here but finished more than three lengths behind GALVANIZE at York in October and Kevin Ryan's charge can confirm the form and get off the mark. Poetree In Motion is a half-sister to a stayer so is likely to find this too short but Watchable was third over 6f at Redcar on his debut and is unexposed.
