      Verdict

      Idee Fixee found one too good in all four outings last year, including a handicap at Chelmsford, though is well clear of the likes of Hobsons Bay and John O'Groats at the weights back at this level. But CHANTICO looks a bigger threat on his third at Epsom behind a winner rated 90 so Roger Varian’s charge gets the vote on his reappearance. Aeroplane Mode was doing his best work at the finish at Wolverhampton on his debut on the Flat and could go well.
