Rohaan has a penalty for a comfortable win over 6f at Newcastle last week and is likely to find this a much tougher assignment with most having some sort of chance. Course winner Hackness Harry is also upped in trip and has changed stables. Top weight Muay Thai has been gelded but makes his debut on the all-weather. MILLION REASONS switches to handicaps having placed here and at Newcastle. He is probably still improving and should give a good account with Stefano Cherchi taking off 5lb. Love Of Zoffany has found some form but is having a first run on Polytrack but there should be more to come from Deputy and Dashing Dick has been getting closer.
