Correggio did get his head in front at Catterick two runs ago but was demoted in the stewards' room and has been beaten since at Redcar. He's in danger of becoming disappointing but there should be more to come from Warwick third Paris Rose over this slightly longer trip. Broughton may do better this year while there was plenty of promise in Elusive Band's debut at Newmarket and this looks a lot less competitive. But we just prefer FAMILLIARITY, who will have learned plenty from her Polytrack debut in December. This trip looks ideal on breeding and her stable is in terrific form. I'm Fraam Govan has won a bumper but the shorter trip shouldn't be a problem and he's the pick of the older horses.
