Harare won well last time and can score again with Discotheque and Diamond Dan others to consider. The selection beat Norwegian last time so the form could be boosted in the previous race, but nonetheless that win came in quite a competitive contest so with James Doyle again in the plate we think he can get his head in front again. Discotheque is in good form at present and she ran well last time at Lingfield when chasing home Siena Star. She reverts to her optimum trip today but she has an awful draw which although not decisive over this distance, it will certainly not help her chance. Diamond Dan found trouble in running and also found the trip too sharp over 7f last time finishing 9th behind Lil Najma. That run is easy to forgive and he should be seen in a much better light today. Under Fire hails from a shrewd yard and is one to note in the market, but for the winner we are happy to stick with Harare.
