The recent winners Fantastic Flyer and Tellovoi have both been drawn high. The former scored over today’s trip at Kempton recently while the latter won over 6f here last week. Locommotion has a shout on his recent efforts but is another with a wide draw to overcome and CLEMENT could be the beneficiary. He ran below par at Salisbury last weekend but was beaten less than a length at Wolverhampton before that and should be thereabouts at the finish once again. Just An Idea slides further down the weights though both wins so far came over 6f. King Of Rooks wears a visor for the first time having yet to win on the all-weather.
