Studfarmer raced prominently when scoring over 6f here a fortnight so the drop back in trip should not be a problem. But that was his first win since 2013 and it could be MOSSGO's turn to end a long losing run today. He was beaten a length off a slightly higher mark over track and trip the last time he raced in this grade. Fleeting Indian and Quantum Dot are closely matched on latest running at Lingfield while Two Turtle Doves has the beating of Saved My Bacon and China Excels on recent form.
