The majority of these have something to prove at present so this might be a good opportunity for SOARING STAR, who has been dropped a couple of pounds and has had wind surgery since last seen. Sucellus was all at sea at Chester last time and is better than that but John Jasper is now 0-16 and Ghost Rider has only beaten one home in his last four runs while Yorkshire Pirlo is upped in trip and needs some help from the handicapper.
