MOVER AND SHAKER sprung a 50-1 surprise when winning over track and trip last time, beating RAFA BAY and MAGIC TATTOO. He is weighted to confirm his superiority and needs only to confirm that last-start improvement to win again. Versatile PLUS FOUR had excuses last time but should have a role to play if bouncing back to earlier form.
