DOC SPORTELLO was beaten in a handicap last time but was winning plating races earlier in the year. He has leading claims on these terms and is preferred to Good Earth. The latter bids for a hat-trick back on the all-weather having finished in front of Glorious Charmer when scoring at Wetherby last time while Alsvinder drops in class for this. Obtuse may prove best of the remainder with William Buick’s presence taking the eye.
