Magic Cross won a claimer here back in April and has a chance dropping into this grade, while Comrade Bond showed a bit more in a maiden handicap last time and Kieren Fallon takes the ride. Yarmouth winner Golden Compass is holding her form well and should be thereabouts again, but the vote goes to TILL DAWN, who went close in both starts over the minimum trip last month and looks ready for another try at 6f. It's hard to make any sort of case for the remainder.
