Titch Strider, Towcester runner-up Bob Lewis and Capellini all have place claims in this. Kayfrou and On Alert could also figure if fully wound-up while Lady Sinatra is relatively unexposed and will be helped by Thomas Garner's 7lb claim. SHINKO MOON unsurprisingly needed last month's outing at Taunton, his first for 18 months, but will strip fitter here and was held in quite high regard a couple of years ago. He won a bumper around here and could be very interesting if attracting market support trying 2m4f for the first time.
