A fiendishly competitive handicap with the narrow vote in favour of NATIVE INSTINCT. Ed Bethell's 3-y-o was below his best when last seen at Southwell in August, yet his previous promise on turf should certainly not be forgotten and he could well be worth chancing to put it all together. Sky Advocate is another 3-y-o of interest with a first-time visor now enlisted. Newcastle scorer Candonomore, Daring Legend, Vixey and Quest For Fun complete a lengthy shortlist.
