There was cut in the ground when TWO BIDS finished third over today’s trip at Sandown on last month’s debut and the Haggas colt may prove good enough. Fly The Flag can also figure having placed on the all-weather on his introduction while Dubai Future steps up in trip after placing over a mile and is preferred to stablemate Reaction Time. Caravan Of Hope drops back in trip having gone close in soft ground at Carlisle on his earlier debut while Into The Zone is upped from a mile after a better effort at Chelmsford. Invictus Spirit can include several useful types among a host of winning relatives and is a newcomer to note.
