PRINCE DES FICHAUX (4) relished the marathon test when second at Newcastle over 4m1 1/4f two starts ago. Only denied a neck in Class 2 company and probably found the trip too short when fourth at Kelso subsequently. Top chance. DUKE OF DECEPTION (3) is aiming for back to back victories after a 6L Haydock success. Steps up in trip with solid credentials. HOUSTON TEXAS (1) carries top weight. Consistent performer since a win earlier in the campaign. Place. BREEZE OF WIND (8) won three times and placed once from last five outings. In good order and drops back in class after a fourth at Carlisle.
