Healing Power has won around here and scored at Lingfield in July before running well back there last month. Masterclass won at Brighton last month but never got close enough to Macchiavello at Kempton to mount a challenge though is probably still capable of better. MOSTALLIM signalled an imminent victory when runner-up at Newcastle then battled on strongly to score at Kempton for which a 2lb rise doesn't look enough to prevent a follow-up. Cabeza De Llave was unplaced in five starts on the all-weather but has improved, winning at Windsor and Brighton this summer. Under Curfew completed a four-timer last summer and has now dropped to a winnable mark after a long losing run.
