Dew Reward is not the most consistent but he's won a couple of races in similar company this year and could figure if in the mood. Conducting is not easily dismissed either as he takes a drop in class, but Malice Or Mischief has gone off the boil and is hard to fancy along with Refusal and Zaheeb. However, JANET'S PEARL won a seller at Ripon last month and with the runner-up having subsequently won, the form looks solid enough in this company. She gets the nod to go in again.
