Fair Star is 2lb better in after scoring at Wolverhampton last week but prefers further. ANIMATO came here for the first time last month and beat three rivals with a bit in hand. This is tougher but he's in very good form and still on a fair mark so looks the one to beat. Scampi has a 5lb penalty for last week's comfortable victory at Epsom and should get into the action while Emaraty Hero looks certain to be thereabouts again after another fine run from this mark at York. Zealandia was having his first start for Ian Williams after arriving from France when landing an amateurs' race at York and it will be a surprise if he's not competitive while Nao Da Mais recorded the eighth win of his career at Wolverhampton and is only 3lb higher.
