Lazzam improved to finish second at Lingfield three weeks ago and is preferred to stablemate Darksiteofthemoon. But DANEHILL KODIAC finished behind a subsequent winner when fourth at Newbury on his debut and the Hannon colt gets the nod to take this with normal progress. Buffalo Soldier posted a better effort at Wolverhampton recently while Paul Hanagan prefers the newcomer Laafiraaq to Kafoo. Miss Marina Bay is another newcomer to note but Gameplay finished last on his debut.
