Tashaar's dam stayed 1m2f so the easy Haydock winner is worth a try over this longer trip and is less exposed than the majority. Rhythmical also made a winning debut and could be anything. Peterhof has been raised a couple of pounds since his latest third at Newmarket but should be thereabouts again and there are also possibilities about Newbury scorer Master Zephyr, though he's another looking high enough in the weights now. TARAZ is clearly improving at a rate of knots and can complete the hat-trick as he's well drawn to be prominent again from the outset. Mezajy, Twitch and Jumeirah Glory may well prove the pick of the remainder.
