EXCLUSIVE WATERS just edges this at the weights and arrives in decent form having finished third over a mile at Kempton last time. Both of last year's victories came over today's distance and he's just preferred to Paddy's Saltantes. The latter ran below par in a handicap latest but had scored in this grade over track and trip earlier when beating Yourinthewill. India's Song has failed to build on her early promise but is dropped in class for this. Mosman has reverted to his former modest self since winning at Wolverhampton in November.
