A few of these have achieved a handicap rating and Jullandar looks the best of those ahead of Unison and It's Only Business having finished third here last week. However, SPIETA gets another chance after returning a losing favourite at Newcastle last time as the Shirocco filly will appreciate today's longer trip. Hidden Link is another expected to improve for the longer distance and Gioia Di Vita may get involved on his racecourse debut.
