Hab Reeh returned to form on recent starts but his best has been delivered on ground with cut although he is capable on the forecast quicker ground. He still looks one of the most likely ones. Chetan is hard to assess as he suddenly produced a much better performance here last week when second to Vincenzo Coccotti, rather putting in doubt that he's only truly effective around Kempton where he's gained all four career wins. He'll certainly be prominent if able to back up that improved showing and is rated some 11lb lower on turf than the all-weather. Tempting though he is, GENERALYSE was given an excellent ride by Joshua Bryan at Leicester a week ago for which he receives no penalty as it came in an apprentice handicap and the combination is taken to score again with trip and ground to suit. Silver Springs has place claims.
