FINE WINE (NAP) looked to have a tough task upped in class at Southwell last time but got his head back in front and can defy a penalty returning to this lower grade. He beat Atiyah on that occasion and the latter re-opposes on better terms while Good Earth beat Sugar Baby here in December and the latter went on to win over track and trip a fortnight ago albeit in lesser company than this. The Thin Blue Line has been in good form at Southwell while Tathmeen won this off a higher mark in 2020 and Lazyitis debuts on the all-weather on her comeback.
