Animato and Lexington Knight have both won over 1m4f with the latter having the more recent form while Shimmering Sands won over track and trip in June but remains 6lb higher. Sealine may improve now handicapping but Come Together and Invisible Friend failed to figure on their respective handicap debuts. LION’S MANE (NAP) faded in the closing stages over a mile at Kempton on his first start of the year and debut for a new yard. A winner over today’s trip in France for Andre Fabre and Godolphin, he could run a big race in this.
