AVISO can see off fellow course and distance winner Wear 'Em Out Wilf. Barney Curley's gelding pulled too hard over a mile at Newmarket last time but he had previously been in good form including when winning here in April. That was on soft ground so conditions should hold no fears and it is worth remembering that he won at 25/1 on his penultimate start so the market may not be the be-all-and-end-all. Wear 'Em Out Wilf showed tenacity to score here last month, with the first two pulling well clear, however the soft ground may make this too testing for this speedily-bred colt. Blinkers need to have a miraculous effect on Zebrano, Fantasy Gladiator is well-handicapped on a mark of 69, whilst Perfect Ch'I is more of a danger than Rough Rock who is better over six furlongs.
