Having made most of the running, SANSILI kept on well for pressure when a close-up third to Oscar Sierra at Hereford earlier this month. He faced a stiff task at the weights that day and will be happier back in handicap company. Donal Devereux's mount can get the better of My Brother Sylveste, who looks as though he has a mind of own though did lose a couple of shoes when a beaten favourite at Market Rasen 12 days ago. Space Telescope appears to have lost his way, while Wester Ross may need this and neither Shadow's Gold nor Final Flyer make much appeal at the weights.
