Cuirassier Dempire was only beaten half-a-length on his chasing bow at Southwell and is only 2lb higher. But Peter Bowen trained the winner that day and has DEADLY MOVE in this. Though no match for Fort Gabriel at Ffos Las last month, the eight-year-old was shouldering a welter burden and is worth another chance. Wade Harper is looking a bit exposed and Ethelwyn needs more but Sebastian Beach will appreciate any give in the ground and could be a danger if taking to fences.
