DOLCE FAR NIENTE made an encouraging return to action when third over 7f here a fortnight ago and can build on that promise and get off the mark now stepping up to 1m for the first time. Special Angel was a place behind the selection in fourth on that occasion and is second choice. Jim Bolger's Expecto also makes the shortlist back at the scene of her win last autumn.
