Mon Brav and Gold Beau have done all their winning to date over shorter trips. Mishaal, Illustrious Prince and Red Paladin all came up short on their latest outings having won their penultimate starts. Amood and Sleeping Apache were beaten on their handicap debuts after winning maiden races while Fieldgunner Kirkup and Can't Change It would prefer some cut in the ground. Smart Salute could figure back over 7f but a speculative vote goes to ZAIN ZONE, who spoiled his chance when missing the break last time, but had been threatening a return to winning ways before that.
