FALCON NINE (2) was just touched off at Pontefract last week (2000m) on second outing of the campaign. Races off the same mark here. Looks poised to strike. FAR AHEAD (5) halted the slide last time staying on late to finish second beaten 1.25L at Beverley over 1700m. Can continue the turnaround in fortunes. The chief danger. ROYAL BLAZE (1) disappointed latest over a likely insufficient 1400m at Ayr. Came home a fair 2L fourth there on seasonal reappearance on previous run. Among the chances. BOOK OF LIFE (3) has a rare start here on turf. Thereabouts in recent races latterly a 1.75L fourth over 1900m. Place prospects.
