REPEATER may not have won this year but he's hard to get away from in this. After decent efforts in handicap company earlier this season, he took a big step forward when beaten only a couple of lengths by Times Up in last week's Doncaster Cup and is due to go up 14lb in the weights after today. Montaser is another progressive three-year-old and bids for a hat-trick after an impressive win at Ascot last time with Bilidn behind while Lordofthehouse can do better back on fast ground after a below-par outing at York. Mawaqeet should stay the longer trip on the back of a victory over 1m4f at Goodwood and Modernism is another with scope stepping up in trip.
