Shongololo stepped up on his Chepstow debut when sixth on soft going at Windsor but still finished three lengths behind Royal Hero and there seems no reason why he should fare any better here. WALKING IN RHYTHM probably has a bit more scope than the latter, however, having had just the one run. He was slowly away at Newmarket but kept on under considerate handling in the closing stages and should take a step forward here. Late Starter and Onesie are introduced at a lowly level and wouldn't need to be anything special to make an impact.
