BORN RULER (1) was out of the money when resuming two runs back then again missed the frame last start over 2000m at Redcar, beaten 5.5 lengths into fourth. Beautifully placed and is sure to take a ton of beating. PROMETEO (3) finished 10 lengths behind the winner in eighth place when resuming over 2000m last start at Newbury. Has never missed the frame second up. Expected to feature. ENCOURAGER (2) has not raced since he scored over 1400m at Kempton Park All Weather on October 16 2023. Has definite claims. ROGUE SOLDIER (6) was beaten 14 lengths into ninth at the second run back from a break in a 1400m contest at Wolverhampton at his latest appearance. Well placed and can figure in the finish this time.
