Flight Command is on the upgrade and is taken to beat Rambling Minster and Cardington. Flight Command has always hinted at ability and based on his latest couple of efforts, must surely go close here. Peter Beaumont's charge will go in the ground and having run well against Steppes Of Gold in January, has nothing to fear here. Cardington found the in-form Lucky Duck too strong at Carlisle last time but will benefit from the step up in trip and can give the selection most to do. Rambling Minster should also be in the shake-up judged on his efforts so far that include a fair run behind Self Defense at Newbury. That shows that he is going the right way and he looks the best of Mary Reveley's pair. Flight Command has a lot going for him though and is the selection.
