BEAU GESTE won with a bit to spare on his stable in similar company. He is hard to oppose given the ground he forfeited by racing wide and with the runner-up scoring twice since. King Oswald likes it here and makes each-way appeal, whilst He's Our Star is better than his form figures suggest and lurks on an attractive mark if a visor works as hoped. Born To Reason has been in good form but looks vulnerable off this mark, whilst Valentine Mist has proved her Bath success was no fluke by running well on her last two visits here.
