Lots with chances but EL CAMPEON was arguably unfortunate here last time when a fast-finishing third behind Brittleton after getting a far from trouble-free passage. In contrast, everything fell into place for the winner and the Dow inmate is taken to reverse placings on 3lb better terms. Brandon Castle's solid handicap efforts bring him into the mix despite his maiden status, whilst Sleep Easy, Front Five and Tingleo are all possible improvers. Toxaris came on a bundle when scoring last time and cannot be discounted off topweight with further progression likely.
