The 11-year-old Idle Power heads the weights for this handicap but Jim Boyle's gelding seems to reserve his best form for Goodwood and he looks best watched in a race taken to go to REGENERATION, who is preferred to Cativo Cavallino. The last mentioned has been running consistently well of late having been placed in his last three starts and he should be involved at the finish again today but may be better on turf than on the Polytrack so may have to settle for minor honours again. Dean Ivory's Hereford Boy ran better here over six furlongs last time and has to be considered having been given a chance by the handicapper but he is not certain to appreciate the extra furlong today. Art Market will have no problems with the trip but he still seems a shade high in the weights despite having dropped considerably over the last two years. Ever Cheerful again ran well over course and distance last time and Andy Haynes' gelding should again be thereabouts, while Satwa Star may do better now sent handicapping. Simon Callaghan's Regeneration is less exposed than his opponents after just four starts, won his maiden here before running well on his handicap debut at Southwell last month and he is taken to go one better here.
