In depth

Verdict

Cool Lightning has found one too good in both outings and was narrowly beaten at Southwell in October. But PROSPERING’s second to a winner rated 90 at the same track last month looks stronger form and he gets the vote despite dropping back down in trip. Harry The Haggler is fitted with a tongue-tie on his reappearance while the newcomer Flying Kiss has a middle-distance pedigree.
