COLOUR SCHEME is taken to come out best in an anticipated match with Chiefdom Prince. Brian Meehan's charge makes clear appeal from a form perspective on his second in a better maiden in the spring and is forgiven a short-priced defeat at Windsor, as he was entitled to need that run. With more to come and conditions ideal he's selected to beat Chiefdom Prince, a beautifully-bred son of Dansili who was too green to do himself justice at Newmarket. This slightly easier surface will suit and a more professional display is expected. Point North is likely to fare best of the remainder as he's better than he showed at Windsor when behind Colour Scheme, although handicaps are likely to prove more fruitful for this horse in the long run.
