Fantasy Justifier has been knocking on the door since being switched to handicaps but is entering unknown territory over this extra furlong. Frangipanni has his first run on Turf and looks high enough in the weights now while Llyrical has been raised 3lb since going close at Newbury, though is at least back in form. COMANCHERO never figured at Sandown last time but this appears less competitive and he did win over 6f here on his reappearance, albeit in a poor contest. We'll give Andrew Balding's charge another chance with Oisin Murphy still able to utilise his 3lb claim. Tubeanie is proving hard to place and was well beaten in a lower grade at Salisbury earlier this month.
