WEST LEAKE's close-up third at Wolverhampton last time gave the impression he's capable of winning off his current mark. He had beaten subsequent winner Crystallize over C&D before that with today's rivals Goodbye Cash, Grand Honour and Yakama further behind and can return to winning ways here. Zeffirelli went close when runner-up to Poppy Golightly here last month and should figure again. He's preferred to another recent runner-up, Abigails Angel, who may be better over a mile. Metropolitan Chief looks best of the rest.
