LONDINIUM isn't a confident selection as he's been off the track since scoring at Haydock - his second success there in four starts - last August. But, subsequently gelded, he's been found a decent starting point for his three-year-old campaign and hopefully will be straight enough to do himself justice. Davy's Dilemma just got home over further at Wetherby on Monday to land a second career success and, with fitness assured, may set out to maximise guaranteed stamina. Kilowatt makes his handicap bow after solid efforts in northern maidens but Phoenix Dawn is likely to play a more prominent role if appreciating the step up up in trip. Good Time Ahead has disappointed of late.
