A winner at Windsor in June, Revolutionise had slipped back down the weights before scoring over track and trip last month. He makes less appeal raised 5lb but Swiss Knight can race off the same mark as when second at Yarmouth last time and is preferred in this grade to both Busby and Swiss Pride. Alhakmah has been rested after a couple of poor efforts in handicaps during the summer and TOTAL COMMITMENT returned a disappointing favourite at Ascot last month. But it’s too soon to write off Roger Charlton’s charge given he won a higher grade sprint than this at Newmarket on his handicap debut - he gets a chance to prove his latest running all wrong.
