LADWEB didn't get the best of runs at Nottingham last week but managed to find a gap and get his head in front. He can defy a penalty on that evidence and the hat-trick beckons. Lager Time is also penalised for his recent win at Kempton but New Decade makes more appeal on his short-head defeat in soft ground at Salisbury. Jay Bee Blue posted a better effort over track and trip last week but is was firm going on that occasion while last month's Kempton winner Time Medicean has to race off a much higher mark back on this surface.
