It's hard to enthuse about the chances of any of these. Moment In The Sun is slipping down the weights but along with Having A Ball, has plenty to prove over today's longer trip on past evidence. Gucci D'Oro is lightly-raced but his best efforts have been over 2m and he wears the second colours of his owner. The first colours are sported by CAPE ALEX, a winner over further at Wolverhampton last month but beaten only a short-head over today's distance before that. Clive Brittain's filly gets a tentative vote with Time Square looking best of the rest.
