The Strig has won over C&D and on soft ground and is back over his best trip after finishing last over 6f at Newmarket last month. Magical Speedfit won over track and trip in 2010 off a 2lb higher mark but seems to reserve his best for Brighton, while Ryan Style may still be a couple of pounds too high and has a poor strike rate nowadays. The three-year-old Signifer must have some sort of chance and Quaroma is lightly-raced this year but so is MOORHOUSE GIRL, who gets a tentative vote to build on two solid efforts at Redcar and Nottingham this summer and belatedly open her account.
