Minella Definitely arrived in better form last year when he won this off a 7lb lower mark. BULLET STREET makes more appeal this time as he takes a big drop in class after a couple of outings at Ascot and is only 4lb higher than his earlier win at Ludlow. Ut Majeur Aulmes will likely finish closer with a recent comeback run at Taunton under his belt but Key To The West and Honey Pound both disappointed on their latest starts despite making the frame. Recent winners All But Grey and Days Ahead both step up in class.
