Verdict
Friday Fever made a promising debut over 7f here in October but didn't have the pace when dropped down to 5f a month later. SLADE POWER hasn't been seen since making a fine start to his career behind the very useful Reply at the Curragh in May. Potential punters will need to factor in his long absence but that form is way ahead of anything achieved by these rivals and he gets the vote. Pyrenean Music dropped down to this trip for the first time last month but couldn't quite peg back Piri Wango. He looks a big threat and holds Harry Trotter on that effort while Noel Meade's newcomer Honourable Emperor is one to keep an eye on for the future.
