Natalia Gemelova claims 3lb off CATIVO CAVALLINO and that might make all the difference. Forced wide off the final turn over track and trip earlier this month, he still finished ahead of Percythepinto and better luck in-running could see the nine-year-old back in the winner's enclosure today. Salient will probably make the running and looked to be on the way back here last month while Rogue Reporter's second at Wolverhampton was his best run for a while, though he remains a maiden. Sudden Wish hasn't raced since June and Pink Lips was a big disappointment at Kempton last time and may be best watched at present.
