After scoring twice here early last year, TOM DOOLEY (NAP) lost his way and has changed stables. He signalled an imminent victory with a very good run behind Rose Angel last week and can get back to winning ways. Rock Montjeu was behind in that latter race and looks held but Sister Slew was rewarded for consistency with a victory over the in-form Tribal Path a fortnight ago and a 5lb rise is unlikely to prevent another big effort. Sofi's Spirit is gradually getting her act together and has dropped to a mark she is capable of winning from but Shinyhappyjohn is a sprinter who hasn't proved he stays this far.
