A solid tempo on the cards with Bamyan Buddha leading the way. I CATCHEM FOX (2) has been in stellar form of late and can keep the ball rolling, after scoring well here last time. A key scratching makes him the clear top pick. MELLIFLUENT (6) is knocking on the door and gets some good weight off for this. Toeroek sticks and he looks a genuine threat. SURPRISE COMING (5) continues to threaten but has just lacked the winning blow. Drops back to the mile and is in the mix again but needs to find a bit more. BAMYAN BUDDHA (1) is a tough gelding but will likely find it a bit too hard under the big weight. Worth keeping safe in exotics thought. Even BOLT BY (4) not entirely without hope having posted consecutive wins in November. SUGGESTED PLAY: I Catchem Fox to win again.
