A valuable novice can go the way of THE CURSOR who was only narrowly denied at this course on reappearance and was likely unsuited by the quicker conditions when pitched into a top handicap at Royal Ascot last month. He can get off the mark back on a more forgiving surface. Stem carries a penalty for his successful debut over 7f at Newbury last September but could be open to improvement over this markedly longer trip, while the well-bred Arabian Poet may prove best of the rest.
