NEWERA looks capable of running well here and is fancied to go well on his debut in handicap company. He was a fair sort on the Flat and looks the type to keep an eye on through the summer campaign. Ashoka looks sure to make a bold bid to land his hattrick and is very much respected although the rise in the weights might be an issue. Jam Session, Spiritual Man and I'llbeyourclown are other well worth considering in an interesting race.
