| Experienced handicapper and a C&D winner. Sixth of 11 in a better race at Ascot (11/1) 12 days ago, racing off the pace before making headway 2f out with no extra final furlong. This is easier back over 6f and one to consider. | ||||||||

FANTASY MASTER ran creditably in a stronger Ascot race 12 days ago and could be worth chancing from a tempting mark having won on his last go over C&D. The unexposed Cherry Cobbler is interesting, while Abbey Heights has good all-weather form and might figure if getting an early lead. |
