A chance is taken on DRUIDS CROSS making the most of dropping back to an easier grade of competition. He makes his handicap debut off a reasonable mark and can strike a blow for his up and coming trainer. San Remo is an obvious threat, while Clinical Approach also represents a top yard and has bags of scope for improvement. Sea The Lion also appeals for a speculative put to make the frame.
