Lots of improvers here, not least BALEARIC who took a massive step forward when scoring in first-time blinkers at Newcastle and is weighted to have a big say again. Ralph Beckett's progressive Bullace heads the list of dangers in his hat-trick bid, although Without Revenge, Spirit of Bermuda and Rogue Force are other likely sorts in an intriguing handicap.
