Verdict
Carnac made the most of a good opportunity when running out a three-length winner over 2m at this track last time and looks sure to at least make the frame once again, but there's a couple of less-exposed types in the field that make more appeal. Seawood is one of those having finished only a length behind Carnac over C&D earlier this month and he may well reverse running but UNCUT STONE is preferred. The latter caught the eye finishing strongly over a shorter trip here last time and Peter Niven's charge has plenty of scope for improvement. Motirani and Marlos Moment look best of the rest.
