Verdict
Little has gone right for Metier since he won the November Handicap at the end of last season. EMIYN was a close-up third that day and might reverse that form on better ground here with a pull in the weights. East Asia had a pipe-opener at Kempton last month while Wickywickywheels has been campaigned at Meydan and Onesmoothoperator will strip fitter for a run at Wolverhampton. Wise Eagle won four times last year with Spirit Mixer successful three times and also second in the Northumberland Plate in June. Pleasant Man was a winner over hurdles recently and Good Show could be anything after just three career starts.
