Verdict

A couple of these are chasing hat-tricks. Green Monkey ended last season with a double over the minimum trip and is only 5lb higher for his reappearance. Gregori scored over course and distance before winning over 6f here last month and is upped a further 6lb. PORT ALFRED wasn't beaten far when fourth at Wolverhampton in October and, with scope for improvement this year, the Godolphin entry may just edge this on his return. Profile Star won here in March but the third Ask The Guru re-opposes on better terms and may well reverse running.
