It's no surprise to see GUARDIA SVIZZERA turning out under a penalty after last week's impressive victory in a higher-class handicap at Hamilton and Roger Fell's charge can go in again. Searanger has managed to win six races and has continued to run well since his last victory from 5lb lower at Thirsk in May. Vallarta has won seven times, including over the course and distance, so can never be ruled out at this level but Jorvik Prince is having a very rare run on Turf where he's never won. Jessica Harrington got a race out of Summerseat Dream and David O'Meara will find an opening for her before too long.
