Formscan  - Words Of Truth is penalised for winning the Mill Reef at Newbury last autumn. Charlie Appleby's charge also drops in distance, so stable companion MILITARY CODE is marginally preferred. The dual novice winner just missed out in Listed races over the minimum trip here and at York last term and could make a bold bid on his reappearance. Manatee Mehmas was far from disgraced when fourth in Listed company on the Knavesmire last month, while Poatan could make his presence felt.
