Nanton may have won over track and trip before but he needs further nowadays with last month's win here coming over 1m7f. THE FIRM makes more appeal having gone close over today's trip at Redcar with Prophesy back in fourth and Enzaal well beaten. Ashkalara also found only one too good on her latest start at Sandown and makes more appeal than the frustrating pair Missy Wells and Dhualar Dhar, who usually finds a way of getting beaten.
