Harbour Vision scored at Doncaster last time but has recorded all four wins on the all-weather at Chelmsford. Lequinto was having only his third start for Tony Carroll when beaten a neck over track and trip and can race off the same mark but a chance is taken on LEAD SINGER improving now handicapping for the first time and John Gosden’s Kingman colt is preferred. Penpal may do better back on the all-weather today while the veteran Lucky Lodge is still capable at this level and Blonde Warrior slides further down the weights.
