Strathearn and Clive Clifton both started favourite last time. The former has more scope and Breslin should also do better now going handicapping. Boutan came good at Brighton last month but didn't beat much while Indie Music is looking very one-paced. CARTAGO had excuses when only third on Polytrack last time. He'd only been beaten three-quarters-of-a-length at Sandown on his previous start and may be good enough to give weight to this lot.
