Fleet Dawn will have needed his run at Newcastle in February and is starting to look well handicapped. Hawaii Five Nil has been lightly raced and is another with a chance at the weights while stablemate Church Field could also get involved. Lamblord is only a pound higher than for his one and only win but tends to reserve his best for Exeter. BENENDEN ran well in a maiden at Ascot in March and improved again to finish third in a handicap at Market Rasen. He's had just the four starts under Rules so may have more scope than his rivals and can open his account today. Singlefarmpayment is another to consider but Twelve Strings has disappointed and this may be too competitive for The Geegeez Geegee
