Impulsive American went close when beaten by Watt Broderick at Chepstow during the week and should go well again but another chance goes to KING MURO (NAP). He failed in a bid to land a hat-trick when fourth at Plumpton last month but drops back down a grade today with Conor Shoemark's allowance further helping his cause. Newton Abbot winner Dry Ol'party failed to cope with a 6lb rise last time while Fourth Act landed the odds in maiden race here last week and will find this tougher. Benbecula is back on a winning mark and could be thereabouts.
