Deadly Move, RELENTLESS DREAMER, Canicallyouback and Super Scorpion all ran in the race won by According To Harry here last month. Peter Bowen's charge did best and was making his chasing bow that day but third place signaled a return to form for Rebecca Curtis' seven-year-old, who can come out on top this evening with Jonathan Moore's 5lb allowance in his favour. Devil To Pay continues to frustrate but Le Bacardy has been keeping better company than this.
