Richard Hannon runs two in this, including in-form top weight Coulsty, but is eclipsed by Richard Fahey, who saddles a trio of runners, and Mark Johnston. The Middleham handler has four in the line-up, headed by Goodwood third Almargo, but IFWECAN was only half-a-length behind on the Sussex Downs and is slightly better off at the weights here. He was second to the useful Velox over this longer trip at Sandown last month and is well drawn for a front-runner. By comparison, the consistent Lincoln and Brighton winner Mime Dance have been done no favours by the draw while Idea has disappointed in his last two starts. Wilde Inspiration and Top Of The Glas have been going well but in lesser company.
