Geelong placed over a longer trip at Wolverhampton while Roman Tempest finished third on soft going at Lingfield last time. But CLUB MANAGER has the more scope having also placed at Lingfield on his handicap debut and Andrew Balding’s charge looks the one to side with in this. Savoy Brown and Alex The Great may both do better back on the Polytrack today.
