UNKNOWN LEGEND never saw another rival when winning easily at Fakenham on Easter Monday. That was a much better race than this and, with James Bank's claim taking care of most of his penalty, the eight-year-old can post a quick follow-up. Olympian Boy and My Silver Cloud could be the pair to chase him home as What's For Tea is 10lb out of the handicap and Sand Artist's best form has come on much softer ground than this.
