Girl Of Cadiz and Sam Spade represent a useful attack on the prize for Richard Hannon with Richard Hughes opting to partner the latter. There looks little between them though, whilst a former Hannon inmate, Lisa's Legacy, should be noted on her first run for a yard that's just starting to make an impact in Daniel Kubler. She does have a considerable absence of 296 days to overcome however. Zero Game is a possible but the choice is Roger Varian's maiden, ORBISON. Connections apply a hood for the first time on the Azamour gelding who has shown glimmers of promise in useful maiden company and does not look overfaced on this handicap bow in an ordinary contest.
