None of these make much appeal but CEANN SIBHEAL, who has the beating of El Indio on the form book, has made the frame in his last two starts without setting the world alight and has far more scope than Fakenham third Fifi L'amour. Sacre Malta hasn't won since 2012 and has his first start for Dominic Ffrench Davis.
