DOLLNAMIX (NAP) finally won a race at Huntingdon nine days ago and, if anything, this is a weaker affair. He carries a penalty but will be 11lb higher from next week so is still theoretically well treated. Et Apres Thou has hinted at ability and still has time on his side while Legende de Minuit probably had excuses at Fontwell last month. Kuiper Belt and Deputy Jones could sneak into a place at bigger odds.
