Sublime Heights has bits of form that could make life difficult for likely favourite SALIGO BAY (NAP) but the six-year-old fell when the latter finished second here in February and was beaten 14 lengths when runner-up at Fontwell last month. Theonlywayiswessex is fit from the all-weather and may have a bit of scope but Mamluk is held on the form book.
