Stag Hill returned a cosy winner at this track last time but over 1m4f. Back over today's distance he may well find GOLDEN JUBILEE too good. The latter won at Kempton before running well for third off today's higher mark at Newbury and looks to have an easier task in this. Greyemkay won over a mile here recently but has something to prove over this trip on the evidence of his previous attempt and the same comment applies to Offbeat Safaris, who has been raised 4lb for a string of placed efforts. Present Day makes more appeal on her close-up fifth at Chepstow in May and looks best of the rest.
