It may pay to side with the fitness advantage held by CANFORD CHIMES. He is bred for the level and was unlucky to run into a good pair of horses last time. This looks a lot easier and the form of his debut looks stronger than that achieved by Just A Sting. Harry Fry's charge will improve for the stiffer track and ought to reach a place but may find the weight concession to the selection beyond him. Silver Hollow looks the pick of the newcomers.
