SUNNINGHILL shaped much better than the bare result before testing conditions seemed to find him out when fifth in a C&D handicap 3 weeks ago. Appealing as being on a handy mark, a return to this sounder surface is firmly in his favour and he's given the narrow vote to confirm earlier promise. Byzantium, on handicap debut and Walk On High are a couple of the likelier threats, with Lumi Plugin and Ellerton a couple of others making appeal.
