Bazooka attempted to make all at Kempton last week and was only caught in the closing stages by ALKETIOS, who arrives here with a penalty. The winner appeared to idle when hitting the front and can confirm the form and complete a quick double. Mendacious Harpy has only won once in 19 starts but he's been competing at a higher level than this and looks certain to get competitive. Evident was beaten in a seller at Lingfield last month and Suitsus rarely ventures beyond 6f while the consistent Dandys Perier is 16lb higher than his only victory at Chepstow in July.
