Le King Beau's winning run in claimers came to end back in a handicap company last Sunday and he looks likely to find at least one too good here. That one could be DRESSED IN LACE as she has the beating of the former, as well as Berlusca and Ishiamiracle, on her latest running over C&D when runner-up to Oratorian. Sonsie Lass has claims on her recent outings on the Fibresand, given it looks stronger form than the latest placed efforts of Gabrial's Bounty and Illustrious Lad, but winning debutante Just Breathe could prove a bigger threat with improvement likely.
