It was encouraging to see X RATED go so close at Windsor last week, and though he faces a different challenge here (the field is twice the size for a start), he is clearly on a workable handicap mark and if the potential cut in the ground isn't a problem he should be capable of going well again having recently won at Bath. Golden Wolf makes both his handicap and turf debut here but looks to be on a fair opening mark, while Alexander M ran poorly here last time but would have a chance on his form prior to that performance.
