Dev Of Tara escaped a penalty for an earlier win at Fakenham but came up just short behind The Skiffle King at Southwell last month and the latter has been beaten subsequently. BLENDED STEALTH has yet to win over timber but gets another chance back over this longer trip on soft going having placed at Wetherby on his penultimate start. The remainder are all struggling at present.
