CHAMPAGNE POWDER (2) did extremely well to run out a narrow winner of a course and distance maiden three weeks ago given how keen he was in the early stages. Brings stamina and this Oliver Cole trained gelded son of Kodiac might have more to offer after getting his head in front. Top selection back among handicap company. The main danger looks like coming from HIGH ON HOPE (4) who steps back up to 1600m racing off the same mark as when third at Wolverhampton (1400m) last time out. NORDIC NORM (3) was by no means disgraced when fourth at Lingfield AW (1600m) following three months off and may get involved. PLANTADREAM (1) completes the shortlist.
