Appyjack was winning for the first time since 2011 when successful at Kempton last time so doesn't make much appeal upped 6lb for this. Fair Comment went close behind Divine Rule here recently but has yet to score in 21 starts. There's little between the former and Pastoral Jet on collateral form while Fleetwoodsands has a shout on February's win at Kempton. However, a chance is taken on OLIVERS MOUNT as he's been threatening to add to his earlier win at Wolverhampton of late and Oisin Murphy's claim may just give him the edge in this.
