Fassbender is 0-21 and finished a length behind Willyouwalkwithme over the track and trip in June. The latter has been running poorly subsequently but will be better off at the weights with Shane Fitzgerald's claim taken into consideration. Alexharwill is still a maiden but has run very well over the course and distance the last twice. He's gone up without winning but looks progressive enough to make a bold bid without beating ASK THE LEADER, who beat him just over a length last time and can confirm the form on 3lb worse terms. Flat winner Mater Matuta has disappointed so far over timber but Jordan Gainford's claim is a big help.
