Therehegoes, a winner at Bath on firm ground, has continued to perform well and looks certain to get into contention though VINCE LOMBARDI (NAP) looks the one to beat. He's improved with each outing and didn't get the run of the race in a better nursery than this at Sandown though still finished a very good third. Burtonlodge Beauty didn't have the pace to get involved over 5f here and will be suited by the extra while El Darooj has the pedigree to do better.
