DUMBFOUNDED is lightly-raced considering he is now a seven-year-old and may well shrug off a 6lb rise for an easy win at Lingfield last month. But Karam Albaari has a 9lb rise to contend with after scoring at Chelmsford in February. See And Be Seen won the Cesarewitch trial over 2m2f in September and Planetoid showed progressive form last year when landing a hat-trick on the Polytrack. Gimme Five went close off a 2lb lower mark on the all-weather earlier this year and Arcamante also has a shout off his current mark.
