Madera Mist was favourite for a chase at Ffos Las yesterday. Hot Gossip failed to cope with a 6lb rise when on a hat-trick at Ayr and, in a weak finale, we’ll take a chance on a return to form for EX S’ELANCE. Micky Hammond’s charge is well treated on his best form and Aidan Macdonald’s 10lb claim won’t harm his cause. Several others have claims, however, including Gold Runner, the consistent Adelphi Prince and last week’s Doncaster runner-up Donladd. Cilluirid, Durouyn and the four-year-old Park Lane Dancer could also figure.
