SPITALFIELD has improved with every start and finished clear of the rest when finding only one too good over track and trip last time. Goodwin placed at Chepstow on his debut but Seaside Legend was still beaten a long way when runner-up at Hereford. Fruit Hill debuts for new connections while Cairo King is related to winners in France and Two To Tango is a half-brother to three winning hurdlers.
