ONLY SPOOFING just failed over 6f last time and was given plenty to do in the straight. This extra furlong looks to be in his favour while the jockey booking is also seen as a positive. Veneer Of Charm could prove a big danger if taking to the AW off a reduced mark and is feared. Hailstone also found just one too good over the mile on his first start at this venue and must enter calculations dropping in trip. Circus Ring wasn't far behind then and should be involved while Accladora is worth a look in the betting on first start in this country. Of the trainer's quintet in the contest, Richard Strauss might be best.
1. Only Spoofing
2. Veneer Of Charm
3. Hailstone
