PHUTULICIOUS (2) has been going well this campaign, scoring last start over 7f at Scottsville to make it two wins from three runs this time in. Looks ready for the longer journey. Hard to fault and expected to go close again. WICCAN WARRIOR (6) was responsible for a solid effort last time out when third at Scottsville over 7f, beaten 0.7 lengths. Extra trip a plus one of the main contenders. NINETY NINE HEROS (1) was in great form at the end of the last campaign with back-to-back wins, the latest over 1m1 3/4f at Scottsville five-and-a-half months ago. Has the pace and the right draw to find a good early position. Sure to be competitive. EL REY VIENE (9) hasn't been able to break through for over a year, the latest finishing second over 1m at Scottsville. Expected to cross from wide out. Sure to be thereabouts.
