SENIOR MONTECRISTO shaped well when runner-up to a next-time-out winner ober 1m here 3 weeks ago and with the return to 7f not expected to be a problem, he makes plenty of appeal. Movin ans Groovin arrives in excellent order so she's a threat, while Roaming Eyes lurks on a dangerous mark if she can bounce back to form.
