Placed at Haydock two runs ago, MONHAMMER sets the standard off a mark of 79 and looks to have an easier task in this. He should have the measure of the more-exposed Victorious Night on these terms and Strike may prove a bigger threat upped in distance after finishing runner-up at Bath. Perfect Match also steps up in trip for new connections having gone close over 5f when trained in Ireland while the newcomer Pearl The Singer is the first foal of a winner in Germany.
