HAIRDRYER hardly appeals as being well handicapped. Nevertheless, if his chances are based on fitness, track form, reliability and scope for further improvement, then he makes most appeal against rivals with something to prove. Alf Guineas won a weak Wolverhampton maiden and looks the type to improve over further and with more time. She will need to be fully wound up to land this so the market will be a guide to her wellbeing. The Gosden stable have struggled for winners over the past week. Magic City is feared with his trainer more than adept at getting more out of this type once they start winning, whilst Inniscastle Lad will get the run of the race up front. The former is not certain to get this trip whilst the topweight will be all the better for his latest run.
