Mont Kinabalu has lost his way since landing a double that included a win here on the Westwood but Kannapolis scored over 1m2f at the track in June and Poet's Dawn and Ghazan may improve for today’s return to a mile. Bezos posted a better effort at Ffos Las recently but SPRAY THE SEA (NAP) is preferred. Though 9lb higher than an earlier success at Hamilton, he is still improving judged on a recent length defeat at Ripon. Richard Fahey’s charge may prove good enough dropping down in class with an apprentice’s 7lb allowance easing his burden.
