A tricky enough contest for punters where the suggestion is the veteran SLEEP IN FIRST. James Ewart's gelding goes on any ground, has always been a specialist at this trip and showed that he retains enough ability to win a race like this on his reappearance after a lengthy absence. Lady Clitico has frame claims, while Mitcd is not ruled out. Iain Jardine trained the winner of this race two years ago and King Of Aragon should be checked out in the market on his debut for the trainer, while Nendrum is another who could be on the brink of better. Rhythm Of Sound is in form, though is taken on given previous efforts from this sort of mark and the same applies to Hey Bob.
