VENGEANCE's pedigree and run style suggests this trip will suit now handicapping, and while his opening mark isn't a gift, this isn't a strong race. He looks the answer, with EL Hageb Rose a big threat if able to back up his shock Plumpton win. Dusky Days may yet come good over timber and is another to consider.
