Harry Lime's victory in a Yarmouth seller in September is the only recent winning form on show and he's been out of sorts since. HONOURABLE KNIGHT improved for the step up in trip when third over C&D recently and there should be more to come from him over middle-distances. He gets the speculative vote ahead of Avon Supreme and So Is She, who were both placed over shorter distances on their latest starts. Dolly Colman has produced a couple of better efforts at Brighton of late and looks best of the rest.
