Renardeau showed further progress last week and won over course and distance for the third time. He’s penalised 5lb today but is preferred to Delsheer, who travels over from France having won on the Polytrack at Chantilly last month. The Pinto Kid is struggling at present but OMNIVEGA made a successful return to action when scoring at Kempton in good style and there looks plenty more to come from David Simcock’s charge now handicapping.
