It's hard to get away from RAAMMEE, who looked potentially smart when winning a couple of all-weather novices last summer and Roger Varian's 4-y-o can pick up from where he left off on handicap/turf debut. The obvious danger looks to be Saytarr, who has proved a revelation since joining James Horton and has Daniel Muscutt back on board (3-3 under that rider). Cogitate looks best of the rest.
