Denny Crane has been a model of consistency since scoring at Fairyhouse in June, filling the runner-up berth three times in succession. But he has crept up the handicap as a result and now has to concede 21lb to WHITEHEAD LAD. William Fitzpatrick's three-year-old has been knocking on the door off this sort of mark recently and the switch to an artificial surface could see him finally get his head in front. View From The Top can be forgiven a modest effort over a longer trip last time and is also capable of making his presence felt.
