Tanerko Emery is well clear of these on official ratings but only beat one home on his first start for Peter Bowen. He has been placed here over 2m4f but has never raced over this trip and it's late in life to be starting now. He's likely to be a short price so we'll take him on with PREMIER PORTRAIT. He's inconsistent but is a proven stayer who is capable of going close if in the mood. Makethe Mostofnow is a course specialist but he's lost his way this season and Rebecca Curtis' pair Lookslikerainted and Champagne Rian also have a bit to prove at present. Bunclody appears to be facing a stiff task at the weights.
