Walk Like A Giant has been beaten at Southwell of late but scored at Wolverhampton last month when MUNJALLY was third. The latter was having his first start on the Flat since September on that occasion and may well turn the tables on slightly better terms today. Raging Bear has been thereabouts over shorter trips on the all-weather recently while Stand To Reason plummeted down the weights last year and could take advantage at any time. Frontline Phantom is preferred to Where's Tiger and Tamayuz Magic of those returning to action.
