LUJEANIE came up against progressive three-year-olds when finishing runner-up on his last two starts at Lingfield. A C&D winner, he may have more luck here and gets the vote. Hatta Stream was three lengths behind him last time with a below par Quasi Congaree well beaten. Stratton Banker is not out of this but course winner Breathless Kiss makes more appeal - the latter went close over today's distance last week. Dominium is the least exposed horse in the race and having won his maiden over track and trip will looking to spoil the selection's party.
