Most of these have been taking each other on in similar events. Yorkshireman went close over track and trip last time, beating both Fen Flyer and Dance For Livvy in the process. He also beat Lacey easily enough here back in November, though the latter re-opposes on better terms and is also better off at the weights with Dukes Den on earlier form at the track. GINGER FIZZ is relatively unexposed on the all-weather and returned to the Flat with a creditable second at Lingfield last month. He can race off the same mark in this and the top weight may well prove good enough.
