Highland Premiere won three times last year and will have needed his reappearance at Newmarket. ROLLAJAM continued his improvement with a first victory at Ripon, however, and can shrug off a 3lb rise. Dropped a pound, Wootton'sun is not without a chance but Animato is hard to catch right and the biggest threat to the selection should come from Fifteenthamendment, who made a winning debut on Turf at Nottingham.
