Magic Millie stood little chance in a conditions race at Kempton on Thursday, but it's still a worry that she finished tailed off and THE HOLYMAN looks a safer option. He showed his appreciation for being stepped up to 1m4f here last time with a victory over the re-opposing Sunset Place and Jo Crowley's colt has scope for further improvement on only his eighth start. Quinsman posted a better effort at Wolverhampton last time and is only 1lb higher than when scoring over C&D, but Sand Skier is proving hard to win with despite always running his race and Cozy Tiger may be better for the outing.
