Money For Nothing would have gone close to beating Un Anjou here last month had he not made a mess after the last. He will be backed to recoup losses but PINKNEYS PRINCE may just offer a bit more in the way of value. He was alongside the prolific Dance Floor King at Wincanton in November when falling three out. That was his first start in 15 months so he should improve and could give the favourite a run for his money. Uranium is also entitled to have needed his comeback at Uttoxeter and the French import will enjoy the conditions. He looks more interesting than the exposed Kyles Faith.
