D'jango caught the eye back over hurdles at Exeter but it’s probably about time NICKELSONTHEDIME was getting his head in front under Rules. Kayley Woollacott’s eight-year-old found only one too good at Hereford last time and won over 3m between the flags. Flowing Cadenza has gone up 7lb for a recent win over 2m5f here and Russian Rumour is less exposed. Lanspark will have to defy a further 8lb rise if he is to complete his hat-trick but does boast a decent strike-rate.
