Dashing Roger, four-times a winner last year, took some time to warm up this campaign but came good at Sandown though a 6lb rise makes this more difficult. Johan was also in excellent form last summer and has dropped to a fair mark after a couple of moderate performances but Variyann steps up a grade from 4lb higher after scoring at Chelmsford. Molls Memory's last three victories have been on heavy going so she could do with some rain and STARSHIBA looks a better option. David Elsworth's charge has only won at Kempton but has produced two fine efforts over 7f at Goodwood recently and the longer trip won't be a problem.
