Yes Indeed showed decent form in France in the spring and could be interesting having a first run for Jonjo O’Neill but Pilbara appears to have two ways of running and Lust For Glory is also unreliable. GUY was runner-up to a useful sort at Market Rasen but finished less than a length ahead of Red Risk. The latter is a pound better off but ran a shocker in this last year and remains high enough in the weights so may struggle to turn the form around. Flegmatik disappointed last season but Pink Legend wins her fair share and Smarty Wild placed twice here last term.
