The veteran Mukhayyam has won three times around here and has scored at a higher level so has to be a threat. Dubai Instinct is a fast-ground specialist who just failed to get up at York, with Viaduct three-lengths behind. If the going dries out even further he'd be respected but the three-year-old Chase The Dollar should make a bold bid to double his winning tally. He's stepping up slightly in trip after attempting to make all at Haydock and it's another from the younger brigade, JARAMILLO (NAP), who gets the vote. Roger Varian's charge won a novices' contest at Leicester on his reappearance and has run in higher-class handicaps in two subsequent starts.

Jaramillo 9-1 (9-3) Slightly worse than midfield, nudged and raced awkwardly before 4f out, pushed 3f out, ridden 2f out, made no impression, 7th of 8, 7l behind Side Shot (9-7) at Haydock 1m 2f hcp (3) gd in Jul.
