A winner in Ireland, PACT OF STEEL took advantage of a slide down the weights on his debut for Ivan Furtado’s yard when scoring at Wolverhampton. That was his first outing since May and there should be more to come. Agent Of Fortune is another looking to exploit her current mark and gets a change of headgear while Parknacilla won a lowly classified race over track and trip a fortnight ago but this is tougher. London Pride finished closer at Lingfield last time and is preferred to Sea Tea Dea while the returning Almanack scored off today’s mark here last year.
