Punting was a good winner at Sandown last time and is respected despite a 5lb rise in this higher grade over a longer trip. Sorrel is also going up in distance, which should suit, and Colony Queen should have something to offer but this may go to ALEMAGNA for David Simcock. He's been unfortunate not hit the target lately and a new hood may inspire Oisin Murphy's mount. Winfola is one to monitor on her first start in handicap since arriving from France.
