He's A Striker started favourite on his reappearance at Southwell but was well beaten. Choral Festival can never be ignored here and Greensward isn't badly treated and should lack nothing in fitness. Whitby Jet has won twice on the Polytrack this year while Ocean Applause and Handsome Stranger are others to consider. SIGNIFICANT MOVE won this last year and is only 3lb higher. He goes well fresh and can complete the double with Tom Queally a positive jockey booking.
