Little India and Lion's Vigil won over 1m4f here before beaten on their latest starts but both have something to prove over this far. TRAVEL LIGHTLY had no problem adding to an earlier double at Newcastle when scoring over track and trip with Pepper Street back in third and Rebecca Menzies’ charge can go in again. Winning hurdler Idilico has returned to Ian Williams’ yard having placed over 1m2f at Newcastle and makes more appeal than Thawry.
