Drops in trip for this handicap debut and while form isn't immediately eye-catching he can't be dismissed off opening mark.

MANOROV made steady late progress after a slow start here last month and can race off the same mark now, he is given the verdict in what appears a competitive contest. Easy Boy was also slowly away and suffered in running on his recent visit but he could easily bounce back to the sort of form that saw him win here last month. Six Silver Lane and Our Manekineko won't need to be told their job at this venue and both should have a role to play in the finish while Timia is worth considering for this step up in trip. 1.
