COSTA PERCY looks capable of taking this competitive staying handicap for trainer Jennie Candlish. The selection has won over hurdles in the past and can make his first start on the Flat over this distance a winning one with Wetherby second Allfredandnobell the most likely to chase him home. Italian Riviera has won three times over hurdles here and he can finish third.
