This is tougher than the race Ilhabela Fact won over track and trip last time and Carp Kid is having his first start since scoring at Windsor in August having been gelded during the interim. But POINT IN TIME won at Newmarket in the same month and was beaten less than a length at Haydock more recently. He should go close again with a similar effort in this company with handicap debutante Cuillin looking a threat as she steps up in trip. Camakasi returns to 1m4f but looks to be treading water off his current mark.
