Trans Sonic has been winning sellers at Southwell recently and can race off a 10lb lower mark back on turf, while Thunderstruck and Follow The Flag are others with a lower mark on turf though the former hasn't won on this surface since 2007 and the latter looks to have stronger claims. Dialogue and One Of Twins are upped in class and Ay Tay Tate makes more appeal as he's won three of his last five starts over longer trips on the Polytrack this year, but another chance is given to POTENTIALE. He's looking to end a long losing run here but has shown signs of a revival of late with placed efforts at Lingfield under today's apprentice and John Hills' charge may still be up to winning off his current mark.
