Returned to this longer trip, FINE INTERVIEW got back on track when fifth in a big-field handicap at Goodwood last time and he can return to winning ways with softer conditions to suit. He is taken to see off the challenge of Hickory, who is respected back at this venue, while Fondo Blanco could also be in the mix.
