Travel Lightly has been making hay on the all-weather winning a couple of jumpers’ bumpers before landing a double on the Flat at Southwell. He’s 8lb higher for this while London Eye has been raised 5lb for winning over 1m6f at Chelmsford. A recent winner over hurdles, Tomorrow's Angel has yet to score on the Flat but Echo won this in 2019 and can race off a lower mark today. FLAMMARION failed to make the track for the Gosden yard but won a bumper on his first outing for David O’Meara. He’s yet to figure in the three starts over shorter trips on the level but goes handicapping for the first time and the half-brother to smart stayer Fun Mac will appreciate this greater test of stamina.
