HERE COMES DANNY is of keen interest and is selected ahead of Princess Calgliari and Divine Force. Michael Wigham's Kyllachy gelding has missed a few races that he's been declared for of late but there was a lot to like about the way he won his maiden at Wolverhampton last month. He appears to be on a fair initial mark and can exploit it in this company. Princess Calgliari has been playing the bridesmaid's role with monotonous regularity but hasn't done a great deal wrong in defeat and should be able to find a race. Her breeding offers hope that she'll act on this surface. Divine Force went close on his handicap bow and has races in him on that evidence whilst Hit The Switch is well worth considering on debut for a new yard but Here Comes Danny makes a good bit of appeal and is readily preferred.
