A big field but little in the way of quality. Tikthebox is one of the more exposed but should be in the mix once again after a second at Musselburgh. But ALLFREDANDNOBELL is preferred on his second at Ripon last time with further progress expected here. Workaday and Rainbow Lad were both placed on their latest starts but still well beaten while Color Model, Dark Command and Inaam look likely improvers. Siciliano is a half-sister to a winner and a newcomer to note.
