INVITED has shown promise to be placed on both his runs thus far so Richard Hannon's son of Kodiac is fancied to gain a first success at the chief expense of Salisbury-scorer Ardennes who could find the concession of 5lb just too much. George Boughey's debutant Dutch Finale appeals on paper and could also have a say, especially if the market vibes are positive.
