SWITSCH (1) was an effortless winner last time over 1600m at Munich, scoring by 4 lengths. Has the gate speed to take up a forward position. Leading contender. WEST MAN (3) has enjoyed a let-up of five weeks since he won when resuming over 1500m at Mulheim, scoring by a neck. Will be better for that latest run and is expected to run well again. SOMMERSBY (9) is back at the races for the first time since September 29. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a spell last prep over 1700m at Dusseldorf. Worth plenty of thought. REAL LOVE (10) resumes after a break of 20 months. Did win at her only other first-up run when on debut, scoring over 1400m at Munich. Worth plenty of thought.
