Past Master made all on ground faster than he would have likes at Salisbury and is progressing enough to give another good account. Archi's Affaire has now won four of 11 starts and probably had a bit in hand over JABBAAR at Hamilton but the latter must have a very good chance of reversing the form on the revised terms and gets the vote. Finniston Farm hasn't won since his debut but made a bold attempt to make all over 1m2f here a couple of weeks ago and fought back when headed. If he stays this far he'll be thereabouts while Come On Come On has never raced over the trip but wasn't stopping over 1m3f at Kempton.
