Crystal Casque has found only one too good the last twice here but Mr Fustic was well beaten back on Turf at Epsom after completing a double at Wolverhampton. Newmarket winner Fulfilled is improving but we just prefer ISLAND BANDIT, who never looked like being caught when making all at Newbury last month. Snapcracklepop looks the pick of the remainder with Alezan returning from a lengthy absence.
