Senor Alco, third in this last year, runs in the same colours as Sounds Of Italy and Nelly La Rue but looks the pick of that trio. Havana Jack had Sounds Of Italy well behind when winning over 2m4f at Overton recently. Active In Milan and Five Piers are relatively unexposed under Rules but so is HEY LISTEN. Only five, Lucinda Russell’s gelding easily won a maiden at Friars Haugh over this trip nine days ago and could develop into a decent staying chaser in time.
