Knights Templar had been in poor form over hurdles before returning to Polytrack with a fine effort behind Heir To The Mint and a repeat will see him go close. Heroine Chic ran well for a long way in the claimer won by Aragorn Rouge three weeks ago and this could be her optimum trip. ESYTOPOLISHADIMOND was sent to Wolverhampton for a handicap two weeks ago and was backed off the boards but had to come widest of all into the straight and couldn't make up the ground. Vigano finished just in front of him that night but Michael Browne's charge is capable of better and gets the vote to recoup losses.
