Bumble Bay, second over track and trip last September, only found one too good again at Ffos Las on his belated reappearance. Fuse Wire recorded his only win here a year ago but the Stratford second remains 9lb higher. Peruvien Bleu has got nowhere near so far and Glimpse Of Gold also needs more but Hija is a course winner who was still in touch when falling back here last month – she'll strip fitter today. PATRONNE had Crazy Train behind when producing a much better effort last time at Wincanton and further progress would put her bang in the picture for this.
