A tricky puzzle to solve but BIG CHILL certainly wouldn't be winning out of turn and can finally open his account despite a further rise in the weights. Lingfield winner Milady is totally unexposed and could have got in lightly while Cape Xenia arrives on a hat-trick after victories at Leicester and Windsor and is still unbeaten over this trip. Pixeleen is unlikely to be far away again either and, of the older horses, Smidgen and Fyrecracker are starting to look well treated and could bounce back to form at any time.
