LASTKINGOFSCOTLAND is back on a winning mark and went close on the turf track at Lingfield on Saturday. He won over a mile here last season but today's shorter trip is no problem for Conor Dore's charge, who looks ready to strike once again. Foxtrot Alpha was beaten only a head over C&D a week ago and can figure again with a 5lb claimer to help his cause, but Ivory Lace continues to rise in the weights despite not winning after finishing runner-up at Goodwood last time. Nezami is dropped in class and makes most appeal of the remainder.
