DOUBLE ACT (7) gave a good sight here last week, leading and fighting on well for a 1.2m second to an in-form rival. Draws a couple of spots wider but has the gate speed to offset that and is in the division two race this week so looks suited. LAMANDIER (3) steps up in grade but is racing well, overcoming a wide barrier to score at this circuit and distance before a 2.6m second over further last week. Draws to play a role again. It's been a while since MACH DA VINCI (10) has been at his best but he was readied for his return with a trial and his A-game would win this. FAZE OF GLORY (9) has the hoof on the till after back-to-back seconds, the latest at this venue and distance when he came from this same barrier. CAULONIA COURAGE (1) has placed in his last two outings here and draws to play a role again.
