With the ground riding soft, it could be an advantage for LONGROOM to be drawn high. The easy Musselburgh winner goes unpenalised and the booking of leading amateur Simon Walker is hardly a negative. Serena Brotherton rides Whipphound, who has only won once on Turf but is a pound lower than when third at Wolverhampton last week. Sir Geoffrey could figure if on a going day and Pabusar showed a bit more last time at Hamilton. Zebelini was only beaten a length over course and distance in August but it was a Class 7 event in which he was just beaten last time at Kempton.
