Placed in both starts over 7f, Fightwithme was expected to show more improvement when failing to land the odds at Newcastle recently and the Gosden colt steps up in trip. KHUZAAM found only one too good over today's distance at Lingfield on his recent introduction and Roger Varian's colt is taken to open his account in this. Sash went close here on his debut but finished well behind the winner when second at Lingfield last time and West Newton is preferred with last month's debut fifth at Wolverhampton under his belt. Trapani is another Gosden runner and related to a host of winners with the Frankel colt Deal A Dollar and Biz Markee other newcomers to note.
