Pink Iceburg is penalised for winning over the minimum trip here last time and was well beaten when attempting today’s longer trip earlier. A chance is taken that PICTURE POET improves further after finishing second at Chelmsford last week and he gets the nod with Nicola Currie’s allowance helping his cause. Fognini finished well behind the winner when placed at Wolverhampton on his debut but better is expected from both him and Approve The Dream with the newcomers making no appeal.
