Official ratings suggest this should rest between ABOVE ALL and Jibaal with narrow preference for the former who is proven over this trip and made an encouraging reappearance when third in a handicap at Ascot earlier this month. Mark Johnston's charge was beaten over 6f at Pontefract on his latest outing but is still preferred to Battle Of Britain, who has yet to prove he's trained on. Ice Cold Bex was second over 7f at Folkestone in August but hasn't raced since.
