FONTANA ELLISSI has regained his form across recent months, unlucky not to finish closer in a better race at Taunton last month, so looks the one to beat back on more suitable ground for his in-form yard. Juvenile Coolnaugh Haze shaped well over C&D last month and has the potential to improve on the form of his Plumpton maiden win. Timberman is capable at this level and can complete the placings.
