Verdict
Most of these arrive out of sorts but SIR NOTE is an exception having beaten Anton Dolin by just under two lengths over 2m here earlier in the month. He must go well if proving as effective over this extra half-mile and is less exposed than Wincanton runner-up Mount Vesuvius, who has had several tries over this trip without impressing. Newton Abbot second Galactic Power is another who might have stamina limitations while In The Crowd has had plenty of chances, though didn't stay 3m at Chepstow last month.
