Acey Milan was second to a well-treated rival at Wincanton on Thursday. Teescomponents Lad has finished ahead of SMALL PRESENT the last twice but the latter, who rattled up a hat-trick at the end of last season, is back on a winning mark and his turn may have come around again. Potters Hedger was also behind Teescomponents Lad at Market Rasen but will have needed that run and won this last year when 2lb higher. Moon King may struggle to confirm Doncaster running with the selection on slightly worse terms but Wetherby winner The Brimming Water is expected to be suited by a first try over 3m and is respected while Foillan won over the trip at the West Yorkshire track just over two weeks ago.
