Not a strong race by any stretch of the imagination although some are open to further improvement including King Eider. John Dunlop's charge is bred to appreciate this trip and was far from disgraced over an inadequate test at Brighton on his handicap debut. The son of Mtoto should be a different proposition here while Seaborne landed a weak maiden and will find this tougher under top weight. Miss Uluwatu shaped promisingly on her return and Stickwithsterling has some scope and may have been let in on a lenient mark.
