RAISING SAND is a rock solid contender after his win here on similar ground last time and the step back up in trip won't be an issue given his previous course and distance form. Sharja Bridge has been in good form in recent times and shouldn't be far away after another respectable effort in the Cambridgeshire last time while first-time headgear may see South Seas to better effect.
