Not much to get excited about in a low-key finale but Smugglers Lane did win a seller on Polytrack earlier this month, though has been beaten twice since over hurdles and was behind Cahar Fad here in April. Rum Swizzle was second over a shorter trip here last time but isn't exactly progressive. Light Breaks started favourite on his reappearance at Ayr but never threatened and didn't appear to stay 1m4f at Wolverhampton subsequently. ONELASTFLING is easily the least exposed and, though she's by Paco Boy, her half-brother won three times over this sort of trip. She gets the most tentative of votes to make a winning return to action.
