Masalai has won three times here including from this mark last February so has to be on the shortlist while Everyhouronthehour had been going well on the track before scoring in November. Bated Beauty didn't win in the UK though ran a bit better at Chelmsford though the stable may have a better chance with Rag Tatter, who is having his first start for the yard. KINCH has only won once and that was over 6f but he's run well enough in his four recent starts here to suggest this could be his day from such a lowly mark. Munfallet would have to be considered if getting a run.
