FIDELIO VALLIS has shaped as if as good as ever on his 2 starts since joining Harry Derham, again finishing runner-up at Musselburgh on his reappearance, so he is taken to get back to winning ways with his recent run behind him. Heading the list of dangers is Fire Dancer who returns with his yard in excellent form, while Flegmatik is another who merits consideration.
