Cascadia went close over 1m4f at Southwell earlier and may figure in a woeful contest but a token vote goes to STANLOW on his win over a mile at Chepstow in August. Malih finished closer at Bath last time and Nifty Kier scored at the same track in July. Duke Of Dunton has been placed on several occasions this year but remains without a win and it's even harder to find any form worthy of a mention among the remainder.
