Running with credit without winning this season, visored for the first time when a never-dangerous fourth of 9 in handicap here (7f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Stamina to prove over this much longer trip but not ruled out.

Forecasts

Falaise Blanc (10/3), Idyllic (7/2), Hey Havana (4/1), Annandale (5/1), Lightning Galaxy (6/1), Rory's Gold (14/1), Zebra Star (14/1), Farabove The Limit (16/1), Alcanzor (25/1)

Verdict

IDYLLIC rates just the pick of the weights on the back of a good third at Ayr so this C&D scorer edges the vote from in-form maiden Lightning Galaxy who came in just a place behind Wilf Storey's mare that day. Both Falaise Blanc and Annandale need factoring into this very open handicap too.
