Ballyglasheen went close over 1m2f at Chepstow in between well beaten efforts over hurdles and Annaluna has also been thereabouts of late but has done all her winning on the Flat over 2m. MAY BE SOME TIME (NAP) failed to find top gear until it was too late over 1m4f at Epsom last time and found one too good. This longer trip should suit and he is preferred to Trafalgar Rock, who has a shout at the weights but has been off the track for over a year now while Aaman's saddle slipped on his first start since 2012 and it remains to be seen if he retains all his ability.
