Diamond Charlie has a shout on his close-up fourth here during the summer and Aragon Knight is not out of this having slipped 8lb down the weights since opening his account here. Jack The Laird is usually thereabouts off similar marks but STORMFLOWER won over 5f at Goodwood in September and gets the vote back over the minimum trip after failing to see out 6f here last time.
