An interesting finale with the vote in favour of John and Thady Gosden's A E HOUSMAN. He took a sizeable step forward on his previous exploits when landing a Lingfield maiden (1m) 2 weeks ago (coming long way clear with runner-up) and an opening mark of 82 could easily underestimate him. Fellow 3-y-o Deferred is also interesting on handicap bow and feared, along with Tartan Chief and Ascending.
