APRES LE DELUGE barely had to improve to get off the mark in a first-time tongue tie at Southwell 5 weeks ago, looking suited by the step up in trip on his yard debut. Fergal O'Brien continues to bang in the winners and he can make it 2-2 for the Gloucestershire-based trainer. Smiths Cross is feared most back over timber after 8 months off, ahead of Sunny Express.
