PASTFACT landed a double at Chepstow during the summer and hasn’t been beaten far subsequently. Having only his third outing on a the all-weather, he should figure again off his current mark. Rainbow Mirage failed to get a clear run at Kempton on her handicap debut while Valentine Blues finished closer at the latter track last time without threatening. Popple has more scope than most but Comeatchoo has won just once in 35 outings.
