Dereham had a run under his belt before winning this last year and unexposed stablemate TARBAT NESS is preferred. The latter posted his best effort so far when going close over 2m at Redcar in first-time cheekpieces and may improve again over this longer trip. Vintage Valley finished in front of both Didtheyleaveuoutto and Kitten's Dream when runner-up at Southwell and can figure while Tomorrow's Angel returns to the Flat on a winning mark. Smart Boyo has been in the mix in lower grade contests but Misscarlett’s only win on the Flat so far came back in 2017.
