ABSOLUTE CHAMPION improved to finish runner-up over track and trip last month. He may come out best in what could be a tight contest. Both Pressure and With Approval look capable of getting involved after decent efforts on the Turf while Star Of The Stage showed a glimpse of promise when fourth on his debut at Wolverhampton. Glorious Asset is a half-brother to a couple of winners and the newcomer could also figure for Ed Walker's in-form yard.
