Irish Nectar was third off a mark of 78 in a Hamilton nursery last month but would be getting 7lb from MASHADI were this a handicap. Second four times for Richard Hannon, the latter has been switched to Dominic Ffrench-Davis’ yard and may benefit from a change of scenery. Fifty Grand Slater looks fully exposed but Jungle Jim has only had the two runs to date and found only one too good at Thirsk last time. Sea Of Angels, Fidelius and Persian Blue have arguably even more scope.
