Presumido is upped in class off a 4lb higher mark having won at Kempton last month. Clement rattled-up a hat-trick over track and trip earlier but has struggled since taking a hike in the weights while though Irish raider Split The Atom was winning at Dundalk at the turn of the year he is 5lb higher than his latest win in February. Fleckerl remains in good form while Arnold Lane has a shout back in this grade and has a fitness edge over the returning Exchequer and George Cinq. But UNFORGIVING MINUTE returned from Meydan with a good effort over a mile here and Gary Moore's charge gets a tentative vote in this off his current mark.
