A tough 'getting-out stakes' but TOPMEUP impressed with the style of his success here just five days ago under Josephine Gordon and may be worth going along with again having rediscovered the winning habit. He scored in emphatic fashion that day and the additional furlong isn't a concern. Sharp Operator must be shortlisted as he always seems to run his race in this type of contest, whilst the latest effort of Big Bad Lol brings him into the equation. He's taken time to find form but could be interesting now. Cool Echo has gone well here the last twice and is respected along with Molten Lava. Tellovoi has won two of his last three but both were in the Channel Islands.
