Fine Resolve's latest improved effort at Ffos Las came in soft ground and Harry Buckle makes more appeal on his second in a maiden at Wolverhampton last month. All Nighter ran well when third in a Lingfield nursery last time and should figure, but the vote goes to TITUS STAR. Stan Moore's charge won his maiden with a bit to spare at Chepstow in September and there should be more to come on his handicap debut. La Romantique was placed again last time without showing any obvious improvement and looks likely to find at least one too good again here.
