BURGLAR is bred to be smart and was talented enough to overcome obvious greenness when making a winning debut at Lingfield last month, well on top at the finish. On pedigree, this trip is sure to suit and he's expected to successfully concede weight all round. My Lion also won last time and could be useful, so she can chase the selection home.
