RAVE was unfancied over C&D last time after a poor debut, but John Hills' colt ran a big race to finish runner-up behind Zain Shamardal. Any further improvement should be enough to land this contest. Musnad has gone the wrong way since his debut and will need to step up on his reappearance run at Warwick to figure, but better is expected from Guisho after his fourth behind Western Aristocrat, who was engaged to run at Haydock earlier today. Dresden finished well behind the selection on his debut but looks the yard's first choice ahead of Dollar Deal.
