Solid tempo anticipated with Satirical Fan heading them off. SUPREME AGILITY (1) still has plenty of upside and keeps Purton in the saddle after a solid campaign last time in work. He'll be fitter for two trials coming in and a number of gear changes can see instance improvement. Will likely get back from the draw, but can be storming over the top of them late. SIMPLY MAVERICK (2) can mix his form a touch, but his best form is good enough as shown just two starts ago. He trialled well recently with Atzeni in the saddle. Didn't handle the going at his last start and can bounce back in a big way. PERFECT TEAM (4) ran on strongly at the end of last campaign after two good efforts over this trip prior on the All Weather. Bowman was on board for his trial recently and he maps to get his chance coming back onto the turf. Expected to be in the finish. SETANTA (9) was solid first-up when closing off from the back and can be flashing home once again.
