INTREPID scored at Lingfield in December and makes his handicap debut off a 7lb higher mark. Jeremy Noseda's charge scored by nearly four lengths, however, and looks up to defying his current mark with further progress expected. Labienus was a losing favourite at Redcar recently but not beaten far and the other main challengers are all on recovery missions. Reqaaba finished a tailed off last at Newbury having won on the Polytrack before that while The Gatling Boy and Limit Up have also been well beaten of late though in better company than this. Future Reference has shown nothing so far this season but Grilletto may do better back on the all-weather.
