Course specialist Amalfi Doug and Cenotice were both engaged here last night so those results need monitoring. The four-year-old On Your Mark looks fairly treated on his UK debut while Solar Impulse would almost certainly have completed the hat-trick at Market Rasen earlier this month had he not fallen at the last. CRACKING DESTINY was beaten three lengths by Amalfi Doug here last time but will be 4lb better off. He holds Ardera Cross on that run and can go one better.
