Destiny Of A Diva and Brouhaha have done their winning over shorter trips, though the former has been placed over C&D. Rio's Rosanna had Antigua Sunrise behind when runner-up at Doncaster last time and she should be thereabouts if taking to the Polytrack, but preference is for ART SCHOLAR. He popped-up at a big price over track and trip last month on his first start over the distance and Mike Appleby's charge is open to further progress. Stanley Rigby returns to action but the multiple Fibresand winner may need the outing, while this is tougher than the claimer Raucous Behaviour won at Kempton in September.
