Sir Commander is an obvious starting point as the least exposed member of the sextet and now has his first start since being gelded. He went close at Wolverhampton when last seen in late-May and is entitled to do so once again. Burford Brown failed to build on an improved effort at Beverley when unplaced here last time whilst Bowler Hat has been competing quite reasonably in handicap company but is starting to look exposed. Amandine and Oswald are in with a claim on official ratings too but JURZ probably came up against a major improver when runner-up to Tahreek in a Nottingham handicap latest and should go one better returned to maiden company.
