Strong pace from Phantom Man, Backinthefastlane and Chance Encounter. CHANCE ENCOUNTER (1) doesn't boast the best winning strike rate but ran a nice race last time out, finishing second and beaten only one length over 1600m at Kenilworth. Overdue and gets chance. TRIP TO CAMELOT (5) made it back-to-back wins when successful last start over 1600m at Kenilworth, getting home by a nose. First try this trip but hard to fault recent form. BACKINTHEFASTLANE (4) was well fancied last time but found one better at Kenilworth, finishing 0.8 lengths adrift at the end of 1800m. Looks well placed stepping out in trip. Expected to be in the finish again. FORT LIAM (3) ran below expectations last start, finishing fifth and beaten 3.5 lengths at Kenilworth over 1950m. Nicely placed to make amends.
