It's fair to say FIRMAMENT isn't easy to win with but it was a much improved effort at York last time and he's well-handicapped if he can build on that here. Stablemate Hortzadar may still have more to give for his new yard and wasn't disgraced at York last time but Masham Star could be the main danger with De Sousa booked to ride having shaped like a win may be near on his last couple of starts.
