Boy The Bell has never been beyond 7f in 36 starts but is very consistent at this level. Key Breeze has also been going well in minor handicaps and can get involved while the trip is certainly no problem for Shabak Hom, who scored over 1m4f at Ffos Las in July. Yorksters Prince has won three times on turf, all in sellers over today's C&D, but will need much more this time and it's TIGER WEBB who earns the vote. Formerly with Sir Henry Cecil, he has his first start for Mick Easterby and his latest form in handicaps at Goodwood and Epsom suggest he is very well in here.
