Curbyourenthusiasm steps up in class off a 9lb higher mark having landed a double at Windsor while Pressure Point won a Class 3 handicap over track and trip in May and has been raised 6lb. Marmion went close over course and distance more recently with Manhattan Swing behind and looks the main threat to MIGHTY YAR. Lady Cecil's charge found a progressive three-year-old in Kings Fete too good when runner-up in last year's renewal but gets another chance to go one better racing off the same mark today. First Sitting arrives in good form but steps up in trip while Dark Ruler has been raised 5lb for finishing second at Hamilton last time.
