A race with a number of improving sorts in opposition and WHITE DEVIL can be the answer to the conundrum. Andrew Balding's gelding has run well at esoteric tracks in the past and if the cheek pieces can work their magic, he is at the right end of the handicap to prosper. David Lanigan had a couple of entries in at the early declaration stage so it could be significant that Faithful One is the filly that represents the yard. Mr Irons ran disappointingly last time out and the visor is applied. Nevertheless, he has chances if reproducing his previous run at Sandown. Jubail has only gone up 4lb for a victory at Leicester and the fourth has come out to win at Brighton since.
