SPANISH MANE is a fast-ground specialist and has won here twice. It was too soft when he ran poorly here in October and though he usually needs a run to put him straight this looks a good opportunity with his rider's claim a bonus. Urtzi has only run on Polytrack but has been going well at Lingfield and if transferring that form to Turf would have to be considered. Coverham is better on the all-weather and has never won over the trip though takes a drop in class but Dutugamunu is just 3lb higher than his last success at Lingfield in February and his rider is in outstanding form. Dr Jekyll has never won and has been beaten in a couple of claimers recently.
