Ideal Candy finished ahead of Strawberryandcream and Whererainbowsend when runner-up at Newcastle but let the form down with a modest handicap debut at the same track. Golden Image returned a losing favourite on the Turf at Lingfield in September so RACEHORSE gets the vote to show improvement on the back of last week’s debut fourth at Chelmsford and come out best. Culture Shock represents the Hannon yard and may prove best of the newcomers.
