Harlequin Rock was only beaten a short-head over course and distance last week but FLYING FANTASY wasn’t far behind and, on slightly better terms, Stuart Williams’ charge could come out on top today. Anastazia won over 7f here in August and was second on her reappearance at Lingfield but she’s never won over a trip this far. Stun Gun is rated 11lb higher on the all-weather but is best on Fibresand, but Rustique won over a bit further here last summer and is back on the same mark.
