Noble Anthem has to be greatly respected here as he has won 2 of his last 3 now but I thought he was all out to get the better of Glasses Up over C&D last time and up 3lb might just prove vulnerable here. ENFORCED looked progressive to me prior to that blip last time. That looked a strong handicap though and the Godolphin pair Noble Dynasty and Echo Point both look really well handicapped. He will find this a bit easier and stepping up to a mile and a quarter for the first time should bring about further improvement. Given the strength of his Brighton and Newmarket wins I’ll be surprised if he isn’t rated higher than 90 going forward. Noble Anthem is definitely one of the dangers but Bollin Joan is also capable of a big run as she travelled well at Ripon and just lost a bit of ground trying to angle out. She still looks to be in good form.

Precisely caught the eye finishing a good second on return at Wetherby and then clocked a career best beating Pledge Of Honour at Newbury last time. She is definitely a big player here but a 3lb rise leaves her off a career-high mark now and I just get the feeling something might improve past her. SHOCKWAVES is really interesting for Hughie Morrison. Now this Sea The Moon colt has improved with every run and while he could only finish fifth in the end at Leicester that looks a really strong piece of form with all four in front of him winning since. The third Positive Impact scored at Brighton and then chased home Jimi Hendrix at Newmarket missing out by just a short head so that is really strong form. He goes up in trip for handicap debut and looks sure to come into his own now. Precisely and Gaius look to head the dangers in opposition.
