Richard Guest has a fancied runner in the first division and his Ted's Brother goes on the short-list in this. He was second at Windsor earlier in the month and stared favourite over 7f at Leicester two days ago, though has no form over this trip. Monopoli has been thereabouts in this grade of late and will be hard to keep out of the frame. Nonagon has been placed at Beverley and Redcar in his last two, though remains winless after14 attempts. WHITCHURCH has managed one victory but has unquestionably been disappointing on the whole. He wouldn't, however, need a career-best to beat this bunch and Ross Turner takes off 7lb.
