Rapid Water was ending a three-year losing streak at Kempton earlier in the week so makes little appeal to follow up under a penalty. EGRETTA is preferred as the Irish raider ran well at Dundalk last month and is the least exposed in the field. Fonterutoli makes a quick reappearance after placing here on Thursday while Norwegian Reward went very close behind Muhandis at the same meeting on his first start for a new yard. Sudden Wish finished runner-up at Wolverhampton during the week and could also figure.
