Mr Coco Bean won a division of this contest in 2019 but hasn’t scored since. Will Sommers is still looking for his first win but is less exposed than most while AMSBY is another with scope. The latter has changed stables since catching the eye with a strong finish at Lingfield on his handicap debut and should go close off his current mark on that showing. Greengage and Tricorn have been in the mix on the all-weather lately and the former can race off a much lower mark back on this surface given she’s yet to win in 20 attempts on the Turf.
