A couple of these stand out on recent form with Runaiocht posting a better effort over 7f at Kempton last time and LIVING LEADER beaten only a length over a mile at the same track. The latter landed a course and distance double early last year and it could be his turn again today. Dukes Meadow went close at Chelmsford in between his more usual modest efforts while Presence Process finished runner-up over 1m2f here recently but remains without a win in 13 attempts. Of the remainder, World Of Good and Feel The Vibes have both tumbled down the weights without yet showing any benefit.
