MONDAMMEJ arrives in the best form having now won three of his last five outings including last month’s course and distance success. He can race off a similar mark today and confirm running with both Blue De Vega and Royal Birth. Several drop back down from 6f including Exalted Angel and Venturous, who also drop down in class, while Fizzy Feet can do better back on the all-weather today though has to race off a much higher mark on this surface. Marnie James tumbles further down the weights looking for his first win since 2018.
