First Man won from out of the weights at Stratford last month but has been beaten at Fontwell since and is 13lb higher today. WISE COCO is preferred as she’s placed over 2m here in both starts since returning to action and looks worth another try over this longer trip. Condarcia should have come on for a recent comeback run at Southwell and Mannochmore should also be sharper today while Titus Bolt has a shout off his current mark and Sarvi is fit from the Flat.
