Bahamian Dollar won this last year and is 4lb higher which is very fair considering he's won twice subsequently. He has to enter the equation with Rossa Ryan's claim a bonus. ENGLISHMAN won a course and distance handicap at this level then followed up at Goodwood. He was tackling Class 2 company at Newmarket on his hat-trick bid and wasn't disgraced so should be difficult to beat. Six Strings makes a quick reappearance after leading for a long way over 7f at Kempton on Wednesday while Field of Vision almost doubled his winning tally on Turf at Chepstow though that was on soft ground. Titus Secret is very consistent with a good strike-rate and made a winning reappearance at Brighton. He's up in class from 3lb higher but looks capable of making the frame.
