Fiveandtwenty, Baltic Wolve and King Of The North drop back down in trip having failed to figure over 1m2f with the former finishing the closest on his latest start at Chelmsford. Swooping Eagle and Pyramid Place were both well beaten on their respective debut efforts here but the latter’s stablemate Faramman is a newcomer to note along with Orczy. ITKAANN hasn’t raced since July but found only Berlin Tango, now rated 96, too good at Ffos Las on that occasion and Owen Burrows’ colt gets the speculative vote to make a winning return.
