GREAT HAVANA was slowly away in his early races but was always up with the pace when scoring at Ffos Las though he'll need a quick break from his outside berth. Damascus Finish has shown good speed and his stamina came into play over a mile on Polytrack at Lingfield last time. Deacs Delight steps up in trip for the first time and should be suited but Bonita B has had enough chances and disappointed at Leicester. Smooth Talking came in for good support on fast ground at Lingfield but looked as though another furlong was needed. Rickenbacker takes a slight drop in class and can get into contention.
