Fieldsman went close at Chelmsford last time but this is tougher while Lingfield winner Arctic Sea never threatened on his latest start. Casina di Notte should be in the mix after a fourth in a higher grade here last time when finishing just in front of Family Fortunes while Mr Minerals has his first outing since wind surgery having slipped down the weights this year. ROSARNO had a three-month break earlier this year but returned to action with a couple of placed efforts last month including a close-up third over track and trip last time. He should be in the mix once again and gets the vote in an open affair.
