IN REM just keeps doing enough so it would be no surprise to see him defy a further 5lb rise and a step up in grade to complete the six-timer given his last two victories have come over track and trip. Boss Man Fred was back to his best racing over 3m at Doncaster last month and promises to stay the extra quarter-mile and Guillemot won well at Ascot following wind surgery and, despite a 10lb rise, looks a threat to all if reproducing that form here.
