Kickingthelilly has won on Fibresand and Polytrack but not on Turf and appears to do better with some give in the ground. West Brit's only success on the Flat came in very testing conditions at Newcastle while the assessor seems to have got to Eutropius after his early season double. San Cassiano hasn't won since 2011 but has dropped to a fair mark though it's NEVER FOREVER who gets the nod. George Moore's charge tackles this trip for the first time but being by Sir Percy he's likely to show further improvement and a 4lb rise for his latest victory looks manageable. Demolition has been out of form and still looks a few pounds high.
