A 6f winner, Barchan tries his hand at a longer trip while Finton Friend steps up from 7f after finishing ahead of Miss Minuty here. Prince Of Paris won over track and trip in October but is 6lb higher today and Thanksgiving Day is preferred on his latest second at Wolverhampton. Rum Swizzle may improve now handicapping but so could JUSTICE DAY and the latter makes more appeal after showing a big improvement last time.
