Plenty in with a squeak but a chance is taken on FIRST VIEW. Saeed bin Suroor's charge has an 811-day absence to overcome but, making his reappearance over same C&D as for both previous victories and with his yard amongst the winners, he gets the verdict to make a winning handicap debut. Top-weight Dembe took his record to 4-4 in handicaps last month so he's put forward as the main danger, ahead of Encouraged and Rogue Force.
