Fantasy Master, a standing dish here, has run well at the track twice recently and appears to have the beating of Hiya Maite and Angle Land. He is 6lb better off with Desperate Hero than when starting slowly in the race the latter won at Newbury earlier. NOMADIC EMPIRE (NAP) hasn’t won in this country in more than two years but it looked as though his turn was near at York last Friday and he races off the same mark. Ey Up It's Maggie hasn’t done a lot wrong since returning from a break and makes more appeal than Bath third Safari Dream.
