COVER UP (2) last appeared on September 20 when a good fourth over 1005m in the G3 World Trophy Stakes at Newbury, beaten 2.5 lengths. Rates highly and with a good record here, he makes plenty of appeal. WEST ACRE (1) finished not far from the winner in fourth last time out at Southwell All Weather over 1005m. Has a very good record over today's journey with four wins from eight starts. He is unbeaten in 2 starts here over the trip and is a leading contender. DUBAI TREASURE (11) is a promising type who scored at her last run before a break ten weeks ago over 1207m in the LR Boadicea Fillies' Stakes at Newmarket (Rowley). She makes her local debut and will be in this for a long way. PONNTOS (4) lines up for the first time since October 5. Looking to emulate his win at Most (CZE) at the beginning of last prep. He races well here and can figure in the top 4.
