Ace Time disappointed at Doncaster bidding for a hat-trick with connections suggesting softer going will suit and he’ll get that today. But Falcon Sun faded badly in the testing going at Leicester last time having earlier scored at Plumpton so a chance is taken on STANLEY PINCOMBE. The latter never threatened the progressive Frere D’Armes when fourth in novice company at Wincanton but will likely improve now handicapping. Tokyo Live is another handicapping for the first time on only his second start for an in-form yard and Bay Of Intrigue debuts for new connections.
