DEINONYCHUS (NAP) has the highest rating of these and can open his account at the sixth time of asking. He hasn't been beaten far in a couple of starts here since arriving from France and should be getting used to his new surroundings now. Beggers Luck may have been flattered by his second over 7f here last month while Apparatchika has her first run since July, though has plenty of scope. Bowsers Fold has had plenty of chances but is preferred to the equally-exposed Keep To The Beat and Tipsy Star of the remainder.
