TRACTOR FRED got his act together in the spring and can return to action with a victory ahead of Heavey, who is nearly always well backed but tends to make at least one serious error on the way round. Orchestrated was second off this mark at Stratford on Saturday but is probably worth taking on again with Colonel Manderson having more scope.
