Derulo and Hannington need to put poor recent efforts behind them with the latter preferred back in this lower grade. Windsor winner Franco's Secret makes less appeal off today's higher mark and Hot Mustard's recent course and distance success came in Class 5 company. Hercullian Prince ran well off today's mark at Chelmsford last time but ELUSIVE GUEST gets another chance having slipped 7lb down the weights this year and finding only one too good at Yarmouth on his latest outing. Double Heaven and Frantical remain unexposed, though both are returning from a lay-off.
