Telltale is slipping down the weights but there is nothing in his pedigree to suggest he’ll stay this far. Champs Inblue has been a little better lately but is another upped in trip with breeding which suggests stamina might be an issue. One Flew Over is improving and should last home while Percy Prosecco was placed at Kempton and Wolverhampton in the spring, though has shown little so far on Turf. SAFARHI pulled hard on his reappearance at Doncaster but looks the type to improve as a three-year-old and he’s one of the least exposed in this.
