It's tough to get away from AWORKINPROGRESS, who was suited by the increase in trip to get off the mark here just under 6 weeks ago and with more to come as stamina is drawn out further, Nick Gifford's 5-y-o is a confident selection to follow up. The main danger may emerge from The Bold Thady, who is yet to get his head in front but boasts consistent form figures, with Thirtyfour Thirty rounding off the shortlist back at this track.
