FOURTOWNS was right back to his best with a smooth-travelling success in this grade at Fontwell 2 weeks ago and may be able to make it back-to-back wins for new connections. Sharp Glance has conditions to suit and should go well again, while The Expensive One may improve upped in trip on handicap debut. Piecederesistance comes with risks attached but he wasn't beaten far in a race that's worked out well on his latest hurdles start and could be interesting if the market speaks in his favour.
