Verdict
One or two of these appear to be making up the numbers, while others have been struggling to find their best form. Whitecliff Park should be happier back on the AW and has prospects, See and Be Seen would be well handicapped if staging a revival, and Lady Makfi is back on her last winning mark. Top weight Mr Globetrotter knows how to win and cannot be dismissed despite his welter burden, but the selection is CHEVALGRIS , who has been performing quite well over hurdles, runs off a feasible handicap mark and wears cheekpieces for the first time. Cavalieri may be the best of the rest.
