Division one of the auction maiden and HECTOR'S HOUSE who led home a group of five when finishing third in a Newcastle maiden last time is given the vote to land it. His effort was even more creditable when one takes into account he had to do a lot of the work on his own while the form was given a boost when the second Allformary won at the same venue on Tuesday. This will be his first time encountering ground this quick. Ruprestrian, a well related son of Fantastic Light is of obvious interest given connections. Senor Berti put in a much improved effort at Redcar last time behind the 79 rated Hail Promenader while Do The Deal was noted staying on to good effect at Chester last time having been held up behind in the early stages. Lady Gem has shown some promise and is worth bearing in mind for handicaps but Hector's House is given the nomination.
