Winning bumper Benign Dictator got off the mark over timber when tackling 2m7f at Uttoxeter but Olly Murphy also runs SPACE VOYAGE (NAP). She's also a bumper winner and will be receiving 12lb from her stablemate having sluiced up in a novices' contest at Lingfield. Feel Good Inc landed a 2m5f Doncaster maiden before finding 3m and Grade 2 company too much to handle at Haydock and this is more his level. Soldier Of Destiny is a dual winner over fences but his hurdles form leaves him something to find.
