Loads in with chances here but EGMAREY Is open to the most improvement and after a good run in defeat last time, when only just held, has a clear chance off the same mark. Becuille will have every assistance form the saddle and although he is running well with limited returns at present he might need a reprieve from the assessor. Bentley likes this track but has stamina to prove while Venir Rouge won well enough on his last appearance on the level but hasn't been great over timber since. A tricky race but Egmarey may have more to offer.
