There was plenty to like about the way that Auentraum won his third race on the bounce at Kempton on Wednesday and he is taken to make it four on the bounce at the main expense of another penalised runner Desert Light and the consistent but expensive to follow Hadath. The last mentioned has the capabilities to win a race of this nature but needs everything to fall right for him. Charlie Bear has been running with credit and is entitled to be thereabouts along with Beneking, who has a nice racing weight. Tiviski could probably do with some help from the handicapper, while Grezie has lost little in defeat of late but may be better over six furlongs. There is a belief that the same may be said of the selection but such is the current good form of Auentraum that he is hard to oppose.
