ON THE CUSP has yet to win a race but almost broke his duck when beaten a head by Very Well Red at Wolverhampton last time. He had a subsequent winner behind on that occasion and is the one to beat if reproducing that form here. Noble Attitude was runner-up on her latest start over 7f here though has yet to prove she stays today's trip, but Safwaan may be capable of better than he's shown so far. Castlebury makes most appeal of the remainder.
