It could just be worth chancing JOHN THE BAPTIST who has tumbled down the weights and took a step back in the right direction when fourth over 7f here 3 weeks ago, with the return to 1m from his career-low mark looking in his favour. Inclement Weather and Starry Eyes are others to consider, along with Split Elevens.
