ATTACHE opened his account with a convincing victory at Brighton and Harry Davies’ allowance negates a 6lb penalty so he looks worth sticking with in this. Life's A Beach and King Of War filled the places behind the selection but both have plenty to find and Belisa De Vega may prove a bigger danger having finished in front of Greg The Great at Bath last time.
