Gift Of Raaj has really found his form though his recent double came in Class 6 handicaps and this is tougher. Arabian King's four victories have been on the all-weather and he hasn't run on Turf for two years though he holds Doublethetrouble and Sophar Sogood on latest Chelmsford form. Gold Arch has a similar profile having only won at Wolverhampton. MASTER MILLINER, who completed a hat-trick when scoring at Salisbury in May, can get back to winning ways as Bollin Neil likes some give in the ground. Nataleena has won five times though never at this level.
