Little Mix was left in front when Fairlee Grey crashed out at the last at Towcester but may have won anyway As he was staying on strongly. Today's longer trip may well suit the four-year-old but he has to give weight to PROFIT COMMISSION (NAP). Harry Fry's Presenting gelding made the useful Buckhorn Timothy work hard at Fontwell in April before also finding one too good at Wincanton. That later effort was a bit of a disappointment but he's only had three career starts so deserves another opportunity. Mercers Court is consistent but may have to settle for a place again and Milestone has some improving to do.
