Tom's Rock was narrowly beaten at Lingfield last time having won at the same track earlier. He has the beating of Ourmullion on latest running while Agent Gibbs ended 2016 with a double but missed the whole of last year. Everything For You represents an in-form yard and has been gelded over the winter. He returns to action along with War Chief, Envoy and EXTRA MILE. The latter is the least exposed having competed in maiden company last year and improvement is expected from the Godolphin filly now handicapping for the first time.
