DAUNT never really threatened when second over 5f at Sandown last time. His earlier third over 6f at Windsor was a better effort and the top weight can finally open his account back over that trip today. Silvas Romana scored over C&D last month but has been well beaten twice since off this higher mark, while Key Addition never seems to run two races alike and was tailed off at Bath last time. Sweet Ovation, another C&D winner, appears to be improving, however, and both Thirsty Bear and Subtle Embrace have scope for further improvement.
