Stratusnine remains a sprinter of considerable potential but there are other pace influences to deal with and his rider will have a big decision to make early on from the widest stall. Eminency can bounce back from his last run, while Bolo Neighs is another to consider, but this can go to KULLAZAIN (nap). The form of his Wolverhampton win six weeks ago, a race where the improved showing was foretold by the betting, has been well advertised since and a 4lb rise looks manageable.[Paul Smith]
