Following newcomers to the Ger Lyons stablemate is often a way to make money and RED STRIKER, a lightly-raced ex-Sir Michael Stoute inmate is the sort his former trainer probably had plenty left to work with so his profile is highly appealing here. Of the rest Santorini Sun is a danger if her latest effort was purely down to softer ground and disappointing hurdler Art Of America could also go well back on the level.
