FormscanBy Tom Weekes - BOWERMAN's rating dropped 24lb in 11 months prior to scoring in February and the admirable 12-time winner can strike again. His recent form is consistent and while raised 6lb for his most recent win, today's rider claims 7lb which gives him every chance over the same CD. Higher Kingdom has an excellent all-weather record and is in rude health but is 5lb higher than when winning here a fortnight ago. Most of his form is at a mile but won over this distance, when rated 74, in January. Cold Steel remains unexposed, being a light-raced five year who is unbeaten in two course runs and while he could be suited by stepping back up in distance, lacks a recent run. Cristal Clere was beaten by the selection recently and is 1lb worse off while Burren Song and Roman Bull have been running well recently. No Trouble was second in a recent claimer.
