They are unlikely to be hanging around here with Be More, Revich and Lincoln Park all likely to want a prominent position. The last-named showed more on decent ground at Haydock last time after a preference for soft previously and is interesting now. Friendly Advice is in fine fettle should his stamina hold out over this trip while Salam Zayed is a C&D winner in colours that do well here but will need more in this company to complete the hat-trick. His stablemate PACINO has been a regular here this summer and is now on a good mark, with 5lb claimed to boost. From a low draw, he's entitled to run well at a fair price.
