Pace strong from Bit Of A Rebel and Hoodys Horse vying for the lead closely attended by Bellakai. FRENCH GRAFFITI (11) is the one with upside against an exposed field. He's a nicely bred gelding who won on debut at Horsham over 1400m before closing off well out to 1600m last time. Up in trip again here suits. TEWKESBURY (14) struggles to win but continues to race well, just finding one better at each start this time in. He'll take beating again. REBADGE (3) doesn't win out of turn but has been racing okay in some decent races. Each-way. JUST BERRILLIANT (7) hasn't fired in two runs back but can improve up in trip. MUSGRAVE (12) perhaps next best. SUGGESTED PLAY: French Graffiti to win.
