Nonno Giulio won this last year but is making his seasonal debut this time round. Berrahri is upped 4lb for winning at Lingfield while Bollihope is best over further and Tadaawol has been thereabouts over 7f recently but has only won a maiden so far. Desert Ruler will take advantage of a slide down the weights before long and is one to consider but Jim Crowley is an eye-catching booking for FIRE TREE and the latter gets the vote having been beaten less than a length at Nottingham last time. Last month’s Beverley winner Make On Madam is another with a chance in her current form.
