A good run from Ad Vitam in the first division would be a pointer to the chances of Clergyman and Market Choice but it’s difficult to believe there won’t be at least a couple better treated. Nifty Niece looks held on the form book, despite beating Someone Exciting last time at Catterick. SIZE MATTERS will handle conditions and is only a pound higher than when successful at Ayr a year ago. He’s had a light campaign and can get the better of Liamba, who is starting to slip down the weights, and Seebring, who might improve for the fitting of blinkers.
