Karate got off the mark at the 14th time of asking on the Polytrack last time and doesn't make much appeal to follow-up, while Flaxen Lake goes straight back up the weights after being all out to win at Bath last week. A chance is take on COMMANDINGPRESENCE, who never threatened in better company last time, but was beaten only a length over C&D in this grade before that. Commander Wish could figure if in the mood and Bennelong should be taking advantage of a slip down the weights before too long.
