It's hard to escape the claims of THE IMPOSTER, who had plenty in hand when bagging another Lingfield handicap last week and he remains unexposed as a stayer. Piaff Bubbles and Great Raffles both arrive here on the back of near misses and are feared most, in that order of preference. Heritier de Sivola also enters calculations and Secret Secret would be a threat if he puts his best foot forward on debut for Neil Mulholland, albeit his profile is rather patchy.
