Plenty of first starters engaged which makes it tricky to map, but we can assume a genuine tempo. SOUK (3) gave a good account at his first run for the new stable. The former Godolphin gelding tried hard when runner-up on the synthetic on Friday and won't need to improve a lot to go one better if he backs up. SESTO (2) is the logical danger. Lightly raced and showed some fight when placed here three weeks ago. Goes well again in a very winnable race. MCTOMINAY (1) is an interesting debutant for Luke Pepper who won a trial here last month in good style. Won't need to be a star to be competitive here so watch betting. WALKING UNDA STARS (8) and GRUNADE (5) are both worth keeping an eye on fresh. SUGGESTED PLAY: Souk to win.
