English Summer included a victory in this race when rattling up four wins last year and is back on a winning mark. He is preferred to stablemate Bayan Kasirga but ROWLESTONE LASS is preferred having scored over track and trip a fortnight ago - she is only 3lb higher today. Masterpaver went close over 1m2f on the all-weather last week and has won over this longer trip before while both Spifer and Be Perfect continue to slip down the weights and could bounce back to form at any time.
