Dual Fibresand winner One Pursuit can figure if proving suited to the longer trip, but no stamina doubts surround RETREAT CONTENT. He scored over 1m2f at Ayr before going very close at the same track off a higher mark last time. Linda Perratt's charge is still improving and gets the vote to go one better here. Damascus Symphony has a bit to find with the selection, but Philharmonic Hall should be thereabouts again having finished third at Hamilton recently. See The Storm needs a bit more if he's to figure.
