MOJAWIZ was last of four at Lingfield five days ago but possibly found 1m2f too far. He's back over his best trip here and dropped in grade so can finally open his account ahead of Plaisir. Marco Botti's filly has been getting closer over 7f but tries this extra furlong for the first time. Glorious Dancer is another who might struggle to get home and he's climbing the weights without winning. It's difficult to give Firgrove Bridge much of a chance on his efforts so far on the all-weather.
