Vroom makes some appeal here and he looked on the way back last time and he has plenty of form on this surface unfortunately this trip looks a little short for him. THE BIG LAD can look a rather awkward ride but he had a difficult task last time is favoured by the weights and is C&D winner. Strategic Heights has to be considered along with Tan who would be of more interest if his stable was in better form.
