Winning hurdler Lean Burn got nowhere near easy winner Medburn Cutler when second over 2m at Chepstow and this drop in distance is not ideal, though he still finished ahead of Lady Knight. With Hindsight tries a new trip and may have stamina issues and long-standing maiden Sakhra is another who is yet to prove he stays this far but Always Resolute showed some improvement when cashing home Paris Snow over 1m7f at Doncaster and can race off the same mark with Jordan Vaughan taking off a further 5lb. HARMONICAL wasn't beaten far over 2m at Newcastle on her handicap debut. She's had just the four starts so should have more to offer and can get the better of more-exposed rivals.
