HARD TASKMASTER left his previous form behind when sporting a first-time visor on the Polytrack at Lingfield last week and romped home by five lengths. He may well defy a penalty on that evidence. Precision Prince scored at Kempton on his handicap debut and is upped 5lb while Smashing Lass won a selling race at Catterick in July. Micronize is more exposed and attempts 7f for the time today and Dark Havana could finish closer now handicapping for the first time.
