Trending has been placed in his last couple of outings at Wolverhampton, and finished ahead of Studfarmer (sixth), when third last time. The former should be in the mix once again while Encapsulated has also been thereabouts of late. He finished third over track and trip last month with DOCTOR HILARY and several others of these further behind, but that was the latter's first start since June and re-opposing on better terms today. Mark Hoad's veteran gets a token vote to come out best.
