First up from a break of 17 weeks and placed 2nd first up last preparation at Kempton. Maikol Arras and Stefano Botti rate highly together. Should get going late. Expect a forward showing.

Came in 2nd last start at Napoli and has the ideal draw. Won't be far away during the run. Good enough chance at a very tempting price.
