This looks wide-open with Easy Tiger going on the short-list having only found one too good in his last two starts at Newmarket. Live Dangerously and Cricklewood Green are back in form but the latter has started to edge up the weights again while Calima Breeze was well beaten on her handicap debut at Bath. Likewise Arc Cara at Chepstow and Feeling Easy is better over 6f but Rouge Nuage wasn't winning out of turn at Wolverhampton and can race off a 7lb lower mark back on Turf. DR RED EYE was behind Rouge Nuage over track and trip in July but is now 8lb better off and Scott Dixon's habitual front-runner could have a few of these in trouble if allowed an easy lead.
