King Pin was placed at Newcastle on his final start last year but is upped in class, while Bling King only won a seller over 1m2f here last season. Bousatet is mostly consistent and has a shout with a recent outing under her belt but Staffhoss was well beaten over track and trip on his return to action behind KIWI BAY.

Manchestar made a winning reappearance at Doncaster when The Great Gabrial was tailed off and is preferred to all-weather winners No Dominion and Eurystheus despite a 6lb rise. Engrossing has joined a new yard but is still 7lb higher than when scoring at Kempton in 2012.
