Seprani has been thereabouts on the Polytrack here but last won on Turf in 2017 while Awsaaf’s recent second came over 5f in a seller. Fard finished in front of Harbour Point when third at Yarmouth but Tawaafoq’s recent success at Chepstow came in a classified event. Cool Strutter scored at Windsor recently and could go well again but it could pay to stick with DELAGATE THE LADY, a dual winner in June and beaten only a neck at Yarmouth last time.
