Gunner Will has had plenty of chances and though he should figure again in this, it will be no surprise if a less exposed rival proves too good. Catherine Laboure is one of those but she's been handed a tough draw and SHORE PERFORMER looks a safer option. She arrives on the back of a third at Doncaster and should improve on this faster ground. Newcomers to look out for include the half-sister to a couple of winners, Maligned, and Ever Fortune, who is related to a winner in America.
