Prince Of Burma was slowly away here last month but still finished ahead of Bold Ring having made good late headway. He's still 3lb higher than when successful over 7f here in November but is one for the short-list again. Tee It Up Tommo has run well at Kempton since winning over track and trip in November. He should also go well, though has nothing in hand on Santadelacruze on the form book. LITTLE INDIAN's last two victories have come on Turf but he was just beaten over 7f in a higher grade at Kempton last time and has won on the Polytrack. This looks a good opportunity for John Jenkins' four-year-old.
