Exclusive Waters won over 1m2f here last month but has done all his winning over shorter trips than this. French Resistance also came up short over today’s distance having won over 1m1f at Carlisle in June but Sauchiehall Street came good again over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last time and can go close. SPECIAL MISSION is making hard work of opening her account but she drops down a grade after placing at Lingfield last week and it could be the turn of Sir Mark Prescott’s filly today.
