C'mon Kenny hasn’t raced since winning at Sandown last summer while Almaan’s recent double came over a mile at Chelmsford. Dubai Emperor has been winning lowly Class 6 contests over track and trip but Daheer won in this grade at Wolverhampton in January when beating Fountain Cross by only a neck. MATCHLESS (NAP) was a maiden winner for Ballydoyle last year and has tumbled 12lb down the weights since joining Ivan Furtado’s yard in December. An improved effort over track and trip last month suggests he can win off his current mark and he gets the vote.
