Without an obvious leader, it may be left to Jay Bee Ell, Palentino Rossi and Cheers to control the tempo. Plenty of these looking to improve out in journey now. One of those in particular is CHEERS (6) who is fitter for two runs back. Safely held at both but worth noting he did improve sharply last time in when out in journey. Gets chance. DEELER (1) is close to a win and looks hardest to beat. Has been runner-up last two, the latest here at the trip, and wouldn't have to improve much to break through. ONESTA (10) is in first campaign and improve sharply at second outing when to a mile. The extra trip looks perfect now. LALOLI (9) made debit over the mile and did enough, finishing four lengths from the winner. Sure to improve and another aided by the extra ground. SUGGESTED PLAY: Cheers looks a big improver.
