Swinging London is upped in trip with a shout but Sister Michael returns from a lay-off having switched yards since last in action. GLOBE PLAYER gets closer with every start and with further progress expected now handicapping, Stuart Edmunds’ charge may prove the one to side with. Realisation is another handicapping for the first time though may prefer faster going while Heross Du Seuil went close on good ground over track and trip in October.
