Beeno has been running well over hurdles but faces quite a task to give weight away to the younger brigade. Alexis Carrington didn't show too much on her Doncaster debut whereas Spirit Ridge suggested he has a future when a pleasing fourth on his Windsor debut last month. The son of Nathaniel should come forward from that promising run but LOVEISILI is preferred. Roger Varian's charge has shaped well on all four starts in novice and maiden company and this looks a god opportunity for the son of Dansili to finally come good.
