DR DORO didn’t reappear until June and has won two of his three starts this season. He’s up another 5lb but is well drawn for a front-runner and it would be no surprise if he came out on top again. Kibaar also has a couple of victories this term and looks a danger despite a 6lb rise since scoring on Tapeta. Arnold is another to have had a decent campaign but both victories this year have come at Beverley. Paco Escostar is still seeking a first victory but Life For Rent is starting to look well treated, though was only fourth behind Pearl Acclaim here in August.
