Mobo-Baco was rewarded for his consistency when given a most positive ride at Folkestone last time and should go well if similar tactics are emplyed once more despite a 5lb rise. Shotacross The Bow shaped well on his return from a short break at the same venue and will appreciate the extra furlong while Missile Toe has slipped down to a fair mark and is a course and distance winner. Dodona should strip fitter for her seasonal reappearance effort and has chances of reversing the form with Mobo-Baco on the revised terms with the run under her belt but Badrinath has disappointed of late and Dont Worry Bout Me may need this after a near eight-month absence.
