Frequency has done most of his winning in plating company but is not easily dismissed back on the Polytrack, while Sarah's Art went close over C&D a week ago and will be winning again soon on that evidence. However, preference is for DELIBERATION, who landed a hat-trick on turf recently and ran another good race when second at Catterick during the week. He can race off a 5lb lower mark on his Polytrack debut so Kevin Ryan's charge gets the vote. Chjimes could prove best of the rest.
