Lybica has leading claims after going close over 1m3f here a fortnight ago and Doncaster winner Typhon is only 1lb higher today. Flemish School should be capable of better after just a couple of starts this year but Posh Boy will find this tougher having only won a lowly handicap at Lingfield last month. Florida Beat has more scope than most on his comeback but a chance is taken on LANDAU improving for the step up in distance and Sylvester Kirk's charge gets a tentative vote in an open race.
