Barnet Fair has won twice here and has been performing with credit in very much better company on turf of late. He can go well but has something to find with SAND OWL on their run here in June when the latter was less than two lengths behind and is now 9lb better off. She hasn't been seen since but hopefully will be fit enough to do herself justice after her break and gets the vote. Dimension was just behind Barnet Fair at Doncaster last time and they meet on the same terms but Fair Value appeared to show great improvement at Folkestone, though a 10lb rise looks excessive. Ganas easily landed a Doncaster maiden before a good run in a handicap at Haydock and looks a big threat to all.
