In depth

Verdict

ALSHAN FAJER scored over 1m2f here earlier in the month beating Koreen in the process. But he stays this longer trip and can go in again off a 3lb higher mark in this company. Grams And Ounces has a shout off his current mark but Investissement was still beaten eight lengths when runner-up over 2m here last time. Comedy House won here last year and finished closer on his latest outing while Classic Mission has slipped back down the weights but has yet to win in twenty attempts.
