Khajaaly was placed over track and trip on his penultimate start and any further rain would aid his cause. But STEEL STOCKHOLDER is just preferred as he went close in a higher grade over a mile at Ripon in July and has won over course and distance. Blue Maisey has slipped down the weights and will take advantage before long and the same comment applies to Denton Dawn. Desert Chief may prove capable of better now handicapping for the first time and looks best of the remainder.
