WHAT A GAME (NAP) responded well to first-time blinkers here last month and was a ready winner. He'll be hard to beat if the headgear works a second time. Raid Stane got back to winning ways at Perth last month but was well behind Triumph Davis at Newcastle in April and Micky Hammond's mare would have claims on that form. Ange Des Malberaux is likely to do better now upped in trip but it's difficult to make a case for Dr Beaujolais on recent form.
