Set In Stone looks likely to play a big role here and she has the form to give them all a fright, while Used To Be should benefit from the step up in trip and be thereabouts. Somnambulist and Tread Lightly are others to consider on short-lists, but all of those are exposed at least to some degree and it might be worth chancing the newcomer GREY DIAMOND. With the Mark Johnston string on sing and this runner having the sort of pedigree that suggests he can begin well at this trip, he is suggested against some vulnerable opponents, with conditions unlikely to be a major problem if the ground turns soft.
