A drop in class seemed to boost SHERNANDO's confidence and he ran out a cosy winner at Newbury last week. He could be worth sticking with now he's got his head back in front. Arab League has claims if handling the softer ground after a couple of placed efforts over today's trip, while there could be more to come from Kings Bayonet after his recent win at Newbury. Both Spice Fair and Mohanad have done their winning over longer trips, while Turjuman is upped in class after scoring at Chepstow three weeks ago.
