Day two of Newmarket's Craven meeting gets underway with a competitive-looking handicap over seven furlongs. The Peter Harris-trained Idle Power was doing all of his best work at the business end of a similar race at Kempton on his reappearance on his debut over this trip. However, being by Common Grounds the fast going is unlikely to suit, a comment which also applies to Banjo Bay. Nose The Trade had shown progressive form on the all-weather this winter but has yet to prove as effective on turf and a safer option may be Hurricane Floyd. Admittedly he has shown little in two starts previously this season but most of the stable's runners have improved with racing this term and having been dropped to a favourable mark and with conditions to suit he could be the answer to a tricky contest.
