Wintour Leap was only beaten a neck over 1m4f here last time and is knocking on the door. Passionate Affair's win in June here came in a seller, however, and he still looks too high in the weights while Citizen Kaine could also do with some help with the handicapper. DEJA BOUGG was third over 1m6f on the Fibresand last time, when Prince Of Islay was behind. He's one-paced but will at least stay this trip, which is probably more than you can say about most of rivals, so gets a tentative vote.
