Volito found only one too good in a lower grade contest at Kempton on his latest start and has an apprentice's allowance in his favour today. But HARVEST MIST also finished second at Kempton last time when caught in the closing stages by Welsh Sunrise and that looks stronger form. Shaun Lycett's charge gets the nod ahead of Gung Ho Jack, yet another recent Kempton winner but never in contention off today's higher mark on his latest start. Greenhead High gets first-time blinkers but was engaged to run at Southwell yesterday.
