Verdict
Los Nadis is 8lb higher than his win at Perth in September and would prefer faster ground, but the unexposed Little Hercules looks capable of a bold bid stepping up in distance for the first time. TEENAGE IDOL is in good heart at present and finished a decent third in better company at Haydock last time. Today's going is no problem and, with a conditional taking 7lb off his back, Evelyn Slack's charge gets the nod. Master Act has also been in better form of late and makes most appeal of the remainder.
