Yet to finish out of the frame, FOGNINI has already won at Yarmouth and Redcar this season over 6f. He’s got the plum draw here and Archie Watson’s juveniles are two from two at the track so Hollie Doyle’s mount is difficult to oppose. Autumn Flight made all when scoring over 5f at Hamilton nine days ago but he will struggle to get to the front today from stall 11. Napanook has performed to a decent level in all four starts to date and shouldn’t be far away again but No Bills will need to improve again on a recent course and distance third. Aristomachos is improving with experience but will be qualified for handicaps after this.
