STAR OF THE STAGE has been thereabouts in both starts without threatening to get his head in front. But he may well be good enough in this on the back of a third over track and trip. Thames Knight should also be capable of better after an improved effort at Lingfield last time while Stamp Of Authority only faded in the closing stages over 7f here last month and drops back in distance for this. Moving Upwards and On The Huh are both related to winners on the all-weather and fellow newcomer Spring Seraph is out of a prolific mare so are worth a market check.
