NIGHT HUNTER was conceding weight to three-year-olds when scoring easily at Chelmsford last time. This extra distance should suit and Stefano Cherchi takes 5lb off his back. Diamond Cutter finished closer at Kempton and the winner has gone in again subsequently while Swoon can only improve from a poor debut effort. Down Every Road is related to Graded winners in North America and preferred to Chinook of the newcomers.
