ABUFFALOSOLDIER was well suited by the step up to 3m when making his second handicap start a winning one at Newbury 37 days ago and, with the second and third going on to advertise the form since, he looks capable of defying a 6 lb rise. Jet of Magic has made a good start for Paul Nicholls and remains of interest, while Hector Javilex completes the shortlist.
