MELTON MOGUL (8) put together a string of wins at this venue earlier in his campaign and enjoyed the return to this circuit when runner-up on Tuesday. Won the only time he attempted this longer distance so could be hard to hold out. CLAUDE (1) should find this easier than recent attempts at Alexandra Park and did manage a win at Cambridge earlier in the year. Should enjoy the favours from this starting position. DREAM ON LOU (5) comes right into contention after scoring on Tuesday, giving him two wins and two placings from his last for outings. CAPTAIN KOBE (3) can feature again after placing behind Dream On Lou on Tuesday
