LEXINGTON CITY (3) was in the firing line on the corner and ran a better race last start to finish a close second over 5f at Ascot after missing the placings at the previous appearance. The engagement of Chris Parnham is a positive move. Finds a suitable race and can figure in the finish. SCISSOR STEP (2) returns from a lay-off of six-and-a-half months and did score when resuming when last in work at Sandown-Hillside over 5f. Lines up for the first time for the Chris & Michael Gangemi stable. Placed in a recent trial. Likely to play a major role. UNDER INFLUENCE (7) finished out of the money two starts back then he was never in contention and was beaten 2.5 lengths when fifth in a 5f contest at Ascot three weeks ago. Looks well placed so expect a big run this time. SIR DREAMALOT (9) comes here off a break of 11 weeks. Worth noting he filled a minor placing when returning from a lay-off last prep over 5f at Belmont Park. Sure to make his presence felt.
