A winner over 6f here in July, GREAT ACCLAIM found only one too good over today's trip last time. He can return to winning ways in this with Kieren Fallon taking over the reins. Little Curtsey went close at Newbury recently but has her work cut out form a high daw today, while Soweto Star and If You Whisper both had off-days on their latest starts but have the previous form to get involved. Rulesn'regulations has claims dropped in class and the booking of Richard Hughes for the inconsistent Hot Spark also takes the eye.
