Filun likes it here but is still 8lb higher than his last win more than a year ago. Ostentation could do better back over a longer trip but The Calling Curlew has looked a little one-paced so far and Autarch has disappointed on both occasions he's tackled 1m4f. Shouda must have every chance on his close second to Bougatti over C&D last month, however, as he races off the same mark but we just prefer HAYMARKET. The latter was noted staying on well again close home after getting outpaced over 1m3f at Kempton so this further step up in distance should be right up his street.
