Recent Worcester scorer AN BRADAN FEASA is still favourably treated on his peak hurdle exploits and is preferred to Heather Honey, who was very progressive around 3m when last seen in early summer but goes down in trip now and isn't certain to be fully primed for this after a break. Belvedere Blast is next on the list.
