A handful of these have achieved a handicap mark with AOMEN ROCK boasting the highest rating. He drops back in distance after a good effort in a handicap here and can open his account at the main expense of Wandsworth. The latter attempted to make all over a mile in soft ground at Windsor last time and will be better suited by today's surface. Tarquin finished closer over track and trip last month and has a bit in hand on today's terms with Natalia, while the American-bred Great Conquest is preferred to Limon Squeezy of the newcomers.
