BESHTANI (6) returned after a seven month absence with a strong nose second at Epsom Downs over 1m1/2f. Drop back to 1m is not a concern with multiple wins over the distance in France last term. METAL MERCHANT (23) appeals from bottom of the weights. Started the season securing Newbury victory and followed up with a second over the same course and distance. Contender maintaining solid form. BLESS HIM (12) finished fifth in this race twelve months ago. Ideal campaign running a neck second in the Victoria Cup early May. REAL GAIN (9) holds each way claims. Made a solid reappearance at Newbury running midfield behind the second mentioned. Better expected.
