ANATOLIAN scored on his handicap debut at Newbury last month with plenty to spare and, given the runner-up has subsequently won, the form looks rock solid. He should stay this longer trip and Frankie prefers him to Borug who drops in class today. Tmaam won his maiden easily over today's distance at Bath a fortnight ago and looks the chief danger, though Anton Dolin landed a treble earlier this year and isn't easily dismissed. Haylaman and Sonoran Sands both won over 1m2f here last month but failed to figure off higher marks last time.
