Imada won at Ayr before disappointing at Huntingdon but may struggle giving weight to the likes of Berkshire Downs, second again at Carlisle last month but well clear of the third Dubai Celebrity and THE FRESH PRINCE. The latter looks the one to be on as he kept on for pressure behind the useful Alcala at Fontwell last month and is learning with experience. It's difficult to make a case for any of the others.
