FILBERT STREET was drawn on the opposite side of this straight 5f last week but won with a bit to spare and this looks no tougher. He’s switched yards since but can confirm running with Le Manege Enchante and go in again. Blackcurrent finished runner-up the last time he raced over track and trip, with Bluella and Loulin behind, and can also figure while Sambucca Spirit has been in better form of late and was placed in a maiden here on his penultimate start.
