Flight Of Fantasy has been raised only 4lb for winning at Newbury and will take some pegging back if allowed an easy lead. Aardwolf is fit from hurdling and has won off a higher mark on the level but Dream Machine may be in the handicapper’s grip now and You're Hired has been off the track for a while. The three-year-olds might be the trip to concentrate on with Hombre Casado having already won twice this year and Jazeel usually thereabouts. DORELLA is having a first run on Turf and in a handicap but she beat a subsequent Group 3 winner at Wolverhampton when last seen in February so looks well treated on a mark of 80.
