DIESEL LINE is given a chance to build on last month's promising second over C&D. Moonlight Artist is on a good mark if a return to hurdles and first-time cheekpieces have a revitalising effect. Gallopade hasn't been seen for 22 months but an opening mark in the mid 90s may not be beyond him if retaining anything like his old ability and market confidence could prove significant.
