WING BACK landed a gamble at this C&D 15 days ago, winning more convincingly than the margin suggests, and looks the one to beat. The Truant isn't the most consistent but produced a career best when winning on the Flat at Tramore last time, while Menas Miracle has been running well and may find this test suitable.
