Voice Mail lost no caste in defeat here over 1m2f last time and Andrew Balding's gelding should do better back over his optimum trip so is taken resume winning ways at the main expense of Wind Chime and Trevian. The last mentioned has shown gradual improvement in recent starts and is entitled to be thereabouts again but may, once more, have to settle for a minor role. The Gaikwar is held by the selection on running here last time, while Barons Spy gave little cause for optimism on his recent return. Bold Diktator is open to improvement, especially now that the yard of Willie Muir is beginning to hit form, and has to be respected along with Wind Chime who looks to be going the right way. Voice Mail has an obvious chance back at a mile though and he gets the vote.
