Most of these arrive out of form or have something to prove off their current marks. The only exception being NONOTNOW, who made a winning debut over 7f here last month when dead-heating for first with Thankyou Very Much. This extra distance looks sure to suit and he gets the nod to follow up. There's a suspicion that Zaitsev's Ripon win was a fluke as he was beaten out of sight last time and Tanawar makes more appeal back over today's trip having failed to land the odds on Turf at Lingfield last time. Starlight Symphony looks best of the rest after a couple of modest efforts over 1m2f recently.
