PRINCE JAMES posted a better effort when racing in the heavy ground over C&D last week. This is no tougher and he gets the token vote to confirm running with Tadalavil. Mucky Molly won in testing going at Brighton last month and has claims with a similar effort while Bartley can also make his presence felt with a repeat of his second at Newcastle in August. First Bid is back on a winning mark if rediscovering his best and Windygoul Lad could make the frame again after a recent C&D third.
