UPHOLD wasn't beaten far at Kempton last time and a first-time visor may sharpen him up. Neil Callan was riding when he won at Salisbury back in June so Gay Kelleway's charge gets the token vote. Ravi River has claims on his best form but arrives out of sorts, while it remains to be seen if Ahlawy will bounce back on Polytrack as this year's form on turf has been woeful. Mustajed could prove best of the remaining bunch.
