There is almost certainly more to come from Stoney Silence, Straits Of Messina and Lady Charisma while Chill Factor has twice been placed behind the useful Dance In Time. Vice Et Vertu made a winning start over 1m6f at Warwick on debut but the penalty he's picked up may make life tough here. AUDACIOUS PLAN is by Old Vic so shouldn't be short of speed and he may be good enough to make a winning start under Patrick Corbett.
