Although KALIF D'AIRY has gone up 11 lb in his last 3 starts he was 21 lengths clear of the third when going down only to a progressive one at Sandown 3 weeks ago and could still be on a good mark. Batwomen and Kruger Park look the main dangers.

Good runner-up efforts in handicaps on his last 3 outings, including at this venue. Well clear with an improver at Sandown last time and could still be treated even after a further 4 lb rise. Has first-time cheekpieces added to his regular tongue tie.
