Hab Reeh is holding his form well and won an amateurs' race over track and trip last week. He's penalised for that success and ALEXANDRAKOLLONTAI has only been upped 4lb for her recent victory over course and distance. The latter looks to have the stronger form given she beat the re-opposing pair Economic Crisis and subsequent winner Amenable so Alistair Whillans' filly gets the vote on that basis. Ambitious Icarus drops in class and King Of Eden has slipped down the weights but without any noticeable improvement.
