Earl Of Bunnacurry followed a course and distance success with a victory over a longer trip at Wolverhampton and carries 6lb extra while Break The Silence finished in front of Mr Coco Bean when narrowly beaten over track and trip recently though the latter should be sharper today and may well turn the tables. Bond Angel returned an easy winner over 7f here on her Fibresand debut and has been raised 10lb while FIELDSMAN had the measure of Zodiakos when just missing out over course and distance. He looks capable of scoring off his current mark on that evidence and gets the vote.
