Pacific Salt was still well beaten when second at Newmarket last month but SIR GNET may well have caught Kyllachys Tale at Newbury with a clear run. That was a huge step up on earlier efforts and compensation awaits here with a similar effort as he is less exposed than Turning Gold, who is improving but has gone up 2lb since second at Newmarket. Lunar Deity has found a new lease of life but Tan Arabiq is having his first run since January, though has won over this trip on Turf.
