MELTING DEW went close last time out at Goodwood and with more progress on the cards for his patient handler, the four-year-old could be a pattern level performer in the making. Titus may improve for the step up in trip after a smart win last time while Caliburn is entirely unexposed on just his sixth start and he's another who could improve for the extra distance here.
