TRICORN was below form on his final outing for Ruth Carr but had been shaping with encouragement on his previous couple of outings and now starts out for a new stable on a much-reduced mark, so he could be worth chancing if the market speaks in his favour. The in-form Fly The Nest is a danger and Must Be An Angel shouldn't be dismissed on her second outing for David Loughnane.
