Low-grade stuff with CASSIVELLAUNUS only a tentative selection in the hope that headgear will help him get his head in front after a string of placed efforts. Robinesse is fitted with a visor and ran well on her reappearance before disappointing at Fontwell but she’s had plenty of chances. Bangor runner-up Solstice Twilight may be a bigger danger and Three Star General shouldn’t be far away if putting his best foot forward. A case could also be made for American Life at the other end of the handicap but Browndodd needs more.
