Genuine tempo with Please Mizter leading the way. HEAVY METAL (4) justified the short quote when breaking the maiden here two back, then hit the line strongly last start when rising sharply to this company. In good form and should go close again. PRAY FOR LUCY (8) showed plenty of intent last time when pushing forward from a wide alley to find the front but tired late. Back in trip here and gets his chance to break a long run of outs. BIG PLAYER (3) has been sound in his two runs back off a long break without impressing. His best figures read well and is entitled to plenty of respect third-up. FIENDISH (6) hasn't managed to get his head in front for some time but has ratings littered through his form that puts him up to the mark. Worth including for exotic players. STEPCHILD (2) returns and is winner fresh. Best of the rest. SUGGESTED PLAY: Heavy Metal to win.
