Alla Svelta has won his last two starts but has his first race since April and carries a double penalty here. He looks worth taking on with MANAGEMENT, who has arguably been keeping better company and will relish the extra here judged on his staying-on second at Towcester last time. Hes Our Lad won over this trip at Stratford in March and was only beaten half-a-length over 2m1f at Stratford last month. He can't be ignored while Green Du Ciel also wouldn't be without a chance on his best form.
