Despite a poor draw, Mythmaker wasn't beaten far in the valuable Great St Wilfrid at Ripon last month though all of his wins have come on a fast surface and, along with Zanetto, he was beaten by See The Sun at York in May. Imtiyaaz was back to form at Ripon two weeks ago but has yet to win over this trip. Harwoods Volante and recent course and distance winner Money Team would need to take a further step forward to land this but Vibrant Chords shouldn't be far away again and makes more appeal than veteran Hawkeyethenoo. UDONTDODOU looked one to follow when winning over 5f here and at Windsor in the spring. Things haven't quite gone to plan since but he's still comparatively unexposed and he's fancied to come good again.
