This contest contains some stable switchers who could well be rejuvenated by their current yards with the duo who finished second and fourth last time at Doncaster – Employer and GRANDEE the two to focus on. The latter may well be able to reverse the form here given he was the only one of the first four home ridden up with the pace although it’s not hard to see both of these getting back to winning form soon. Addis Ababa could be the sort to blossom this year but has to prove himself at this trip while Double Reflection can’t be left out of calculations despite her previous disappointment here.
