Barca finished in front of Heron when winning over 2m here last month and was placed over the same trip back here last time. Brittanic never threatened the winner when second over a slightly shorter distance at the track but SPICE WAR made a winning debut for new connections over 1m4f at Kempton. That was his first outing of the year and with further progress expected over this longer trip, he gets the vote to go in again. Royal Dancer is another upped in distance after going close at Brighton and is preferred to Earthly.
