Helm Rock will need to show further progress raised 7lb for winning a lower grade contest at Haydock and EMPIRESTATEOFMIND remains in good form having gone close in a tough handicap at Doncaster last time and has beaten Arthur's Realm twice now, including when winning at Thirsk in July. Substantial did well to finish so close at Goodwood given a high draw but has been drawn on the outside again in this. What's The Story had the measure of Redarna when beaten only a neck at Ayr recently but Master Zoffany hasn’t raced since July while Northern Express is proving best over 7f.
