Amana registered both of last month's victories on faster ground and she's now 8lb higher than when scoring at Newbury, while Lord Theo's recent wins have been on the Polytrack and he was tailed off at Newmarket last time. Lang Shining is not the force of old judged on his recent defeats in claimers and the vote goes to ROCK THE STARS. This looks less competitive than the race he won over C&D in May and he gets one of the more accomplished apprentices on board today in Daryl Byrne.
