Eton College has conditions to suit once again having won two of his last three outings while Dream Pirate scored on soft going at Yarmouth last time. But MR TRICK (NAP) placed in Class 2 company on soft ground at Nottingham last week and looks to have decent claims back at this lower level. Racing Demon’s earlier double came on a fast surface and Fact Or Fable won twice over 7f during the summer but Villalobos went close over track and trip recently and gets a change of headgear.
