CONFLICT was having his first outing since December when second at Thirsk. He failed to threaten the winner but the third has subsequently won and this shorter trip looks likely to suit. Lady Madonna went close at Lingfield last time and looks the only threat to the selection unless the newcomer Time Step proves above average.
