There are some disappointing types in this including Beach Break, If I Say and One Touch. The latter has had a break and so has Cremant but Watergrange Jack is eased in grade and there are possibilities about RIVER LEGEND. Lightly raced, the latter didn’t appear to stay 3m here last time when well supported. Soul Icon was in excellent form in the autumn and may have more to offer.
