SYNCOPATE was placed at Pontefract last time and may come out best racing off the same mark here. Bold Runner and Todd won over 2m last time at Goodwood and Kempton respectively while Grams And Ounces went close over 2m1f at Bath last week. Satanic Beat scored over hurdles at Warwick recently but went close at Beverley over today's trip before that while Noguchi has yet to win on Turf in this country. Dark Amber will appreciate the soft ground but Asker was well beaten in last year's renewal.
