Verdict
JUST AWAKE won by 20 lengths in a race between the flags at Friars Haugh last month in which Raid Stane was struggling when unseating his rider. Sandy Thomson's gelding should take all the beating if handling these stiffer fences. Silk And Roses had Present Potential behind last time but probably needs a bit more in this. Darsi Dancer should go well, however, and Barachois Silver has been in decent form and has place prospects.
