Another very moderate and winnable contest which could go the way of the David Loughnane trained, Luke Morris ridden gelding TRAUTMANN . He is lightly raced in handicap company and appeared suited by the step up in trip when third to Ingleby Mackenzie at Doncaster last month. Whilst Ffos Las regular Bianca Minola is probably the chief danger, she could prove slightly vulnerable late on over this longer trip.
