Swansway won an amateurs' race on fast ground over track and trip last week but runner-up King Of The Celts re-opposes on better terms. Sherman McCoy finished further behind in the same race but CANNY STYLE looks to have every chance. The latter notched-up a hat-trick at the end of last season and was placed at Doncaster the last time she raced in soft going. An apprentice’s claim further helps her cause and she’s also preferred to the likes of Angel In The Snow and Yensir.
