FINE RESOLVE has done well since returning to the Flat, finishing second at Hamilton and then going one better at Bath. He has a penalty to carry here but the excellent Josephine Gordon again takes off 3lb and a follow up is on the cards. Jan De Heem hasn't won this year but has gone close on a couple of occasions at Beverley. He's on a fair mark at present and should make the frame but Rockabilly Riot looks very one-paced and Chauvelin is much better on a faster surface.
