Royal Rettie is an interesting runner here on her handicap and all-weather debut. Showtime Blues won his maiden here as a two-year-old and again ran well at over course and distance when second last month so goes on the short-list. A visor could bring about some improvement in Depth Charge while Duke Of North and Twenty One Choice shouldn't be far away. Clement is still on a decent mark but he lacks the scope of MULHAAM, who has been steadily improving and now looks ready to open his account.
