Verdict
VULCAN goes from strength to strength having completed a double in soft going at Nottingham with last month’s seven-length success. He has a hike in the weights to contend with but another bold bid is expected. Music Seeker has a shout on a recent third at York while Badenscoth won in soft ground at Goodwood in August and is 3lb higher. Lunar Jet had been threatening until struggling over track and trip last week while Balzac made a winning return at Newbury in July and is fitted with a tongue-tie for his handicap debut.
