ONE WORD MORE made a pleasing debut when runner-up over 7f here last month and Charlie Hills' colt can go one better if handling the testing ground. He had the re-opposing Ayaar back in third on that occasion and the latter has since finished a creditable fourth in a Group 2 race at the Curragh. Monsieur Rieussec has even more ground to make up with the selection while Kalicamix will need to step up on his latest second at Wolverhampton to figure. Newcomers to keep an eye on in the betting include Banovallum, Montiridge and Pythagorean.
