A big field and most can be given a chance. The tentative vote goes to CLAIM THE ROSES as he returns to 7f having earlier gone close behind the unbeaten Don't Touch, who subsequently won the Great St Wilfred at Ripon last Saturday. The in-form Ian's Memory is upped in class off an 8lb higher mark for this while Windy Citi has been raised 4lb after scoring over a mile here last time with Dutiful Son back in third. Mulzamm and Exchequer were both placed in this grade on their latest starts and have a shout but prolific 6f winner Go Far has something to prove over today's trip.
