SANDALWOOD passed the post first at Taunton last month but was judged to have caused interference and was demoted to second. He get another chance in this. Brown Bullet won over 2m here in March and Hello Sunshine placed over a shorter trip at the track last time while Hatchet Jack finished runner-up back under Rules at Fontwell. Barrowmount placed at Exeter having tumbled down the weights and is preferred to Perfect Man and Monty's Award.
