Mirrored gained an impressive victory over the C&D last time but a massive 9lb rise takes him to his highest mark for over two years. St Moritz has only beaten one horse home in his last three starts, though in very much better class. Consequently he's dropped to his lowest rating in over two years and it would be no surprise to see him bounce back. Stablemate DON'T CALL ME ran poorly over 1m2f at Goodwood though he's never run well at that trip and is better judged on his earlier success over this trip on soft ground at Haydock. He's well handicapped taking Shirley Teasdale's claim into consideration and is handed the vote. Toto Skyllachy isn't the most consistent but has still managed six victories and is by no means badly treated at his best while Take It To The Max has been racing on ground too quick and will enjoy today's cut. The three-year-old Compton has some strong form and his latest run behind Van Der Art at Haydock puts him right in the picture.
