HOY HOY has been slow to come to the boil but Mick Channon's colt has rewarded the patience of his trainer, and the son of Ifraaj can build upon the promise of his Chepstow success. Starlight Serenade appears to be progressing nicely for connections, and with Ralph Beckett's string in fine form, the Goodwood winner cannot be ruled out from going in again. Rangi Chase didn't seem happy around the tight turns of Chester but Richard Fahey's gelding had ran with promise on his debut at Haydock, and he should appreciate the return to a more galloping track. Dream Impossible attempts to step up in class having dotted up at Ffos Las whilst Rocksee and Company Secretary appear sure to be thereabouts again.
