POLPERRO finished third at Yarmouth recently but was well clear of the rest of the field and will appreciate today's longer trip. He's just preferred to Monopolize, who also finished third on his latest start over C&D and should go close again. Tmaam and Momaris look best of the others with experience, while the selection's stablemate and newcomer Aiken is a brother to a Group 3 winner and a half-brother to the top-class Sleeping Indian. Qahriman is related to smart stable companion Asfare and Ownwan is another to note on her debut.
