Green Howard has been staying on over this trip and an extra furlong on both starts to date and may find this fast track just against him. He also has to concede 5lb to CHEHERAZAD and Paul Cole's filly, who pulled too hard when strongly fancied at Bath last time, looks the one to be on with Silvestre De Sousa in the saddle. Strong Man made a promising start despite missing the break at Wolverhampton and with improvement likely should make the frame at least. But Tancred Spirit ran poorly on Fibresand last week but had been showing very good pace in similar events to this previously.
