Plenty with claims in a highly competitive handicap but we'll play safe and plump for REWARDED. Handed a walkover at Sandown last month, he was effectively making his seasonal debut when scoring at Newmarket a fortnight ago and will appreciate today's extra distance. Others arriving on the back of a win include the returning Thomas Chippendale and the Hamdan Al Maktoum-owned pair Hajras and Almuftarris while Hurricane In Dubai and Expense Claim were both narrow margin winners last time. Trader Jack and Al Saham disappointed on their latest starts but recent Musselburgh third Clayton can be thrown into the mix in a wide-open affair.
