COLLECT ART is on a high and is fancied to expand on his winning spree if all goes to plan; Eywa was no match for the selection at Yarmouth earlier in the month, so Marosh and Inpursuitoffreedom may be the best alternatives. The last named has already been cut some slack by the handicapper and, having suffered a nightmare passage at Doncaster on his latest start, it's very possible that he is a lot better than he was allowed to show on Town Moor. Watch the betting carefully where he is concerned. Frankie Dettori has been very profitable to follow when riding for Robert Cowell, so it's interesting the former champion jockey teams up with Marosh here. The three-year-old was in great heart on the all-weather during the winter and, having posted a couple of encouraging efforts of late, this fellow is likely to be a willing partner on whom Dettori can try to work his magic. However, nothing stands out as much as Collect Art, who has answered every question, asked of him lately. The son of Foostepsinthestand shapes as if the step up in trip will ideally suit and, in spite of being set to carry 6lb extra, Collect Art is taken to rise above his latest challenge.
