Recuerdame finally took advantage of a slide down the weights when scoring at Kempton and is 3lb higher today. Final Attack went close over track and trip last time and can figure again but MUSEE D’ORSAY finished just behind the latter in third having ran free in the early stages. Tony Carroll’s charge is fancied to reverse running if settling better today while improvement is expected from Don't Be Surprised back on the Tapeta having struggled at Thirsk last time. Allux Boy has his first start after wind surgery and is preferred to Freedom And Wheat of the remainder.
