Elegant Love went close over track and trip last time though is the most exposed and has plenty to find on these terms with Newcastle runner-up Capla Crusader. Mr Zoom Zoom finished closer here on his latest start and it would be no surprise to see Water's Edge and Shawaaheq do better after modest debut efforts but NABBEYL may find the most improvement. The latter was only third at Chelmsford last time but beat a subsequent winner and Roger Varian's yard has been back among the winners recently. Sucellus is a newcomer representing John Gosden's powerful yard and is worth a second glance.
