JUNOESQUE (NAP) thrives here and should be more than capable of defying a 2lb rise having scored over track and trip last month in a higher grade. Beau Geste was a winner over a mile here last time but does stay this longer trip so looks the main danger ahead of the three-year-old Hooves Like Jagger. Selecto was a close third at Epsom last week but is now 0-19 and Productive will be seeking a first win in 16 attempts.
