Intabih will be popular after a recent win but he is not certain to defy a penalty over this slightly longer trip and we'll take a chance with RED LILY. James Fanshawe has not had a good time of things, but he enjoyed his first double for some time at Southwell on Sunday, signalling that his runners have turned the corner. The selection drops back in trip but she should be at home over this. She has a handy enough mark if fully tuned up and the first time visor makes her an attractive proposition from a nice draw. Intabih may have his stamina stretched and the same can be said of Mick's Dancer, who looks likely to be better suited by a mile. Moon Crystal is worth another try at the trip, though Ed Dunlop's runners are a bit off colour at the moment, while Colleoni might have more ability than has been shown this far but is a bit mulish. Red Lily can bloom in the last.
