Roaring Lion has gone from strength to strength all season but he doesn't give the impression soft ground will be up his street and it might be worth taking a chance on the patiently trained ADDEYBB. William Haggas has held him back for an autumn campaign after the gelding proved he's not as effective on fast ground and he's less exposed than many in here. Recoletos is another who will relish conditions and ran well at this meeting last year while Laurens can't be ruled out after a fifth Group 1 success at Newmarket last time.
