SOLAR VIEW fits the profile of a typical Sir Mark Prescott inmate as he's improved with every step up in trip. He bids for a hat-trick after winning his last two starts over 2m and may well succeed despite a 9lb rise for his latest victory at Chepstow. Blackstone Vegas scored over C&D in June and has every chance in this lesser grade while Knox Overstreet should figure again despite a penalty for his recent win at Bath. Descaro and Bandanaman have place claims but Petella has shown nothing since winning this last year.
