LORDANO (1) was well in commission when resuming last start over 2400m in the G2 Gerling-Preis at Cologne when second, beaten 2.5 lengths. Rene Piechulek who has six wins when partnering stays on. Expecting a bold showing. ENFRANCHISE (7) is racing well and is close to a win, the latest effort a solid second in the LR Vintage Crop Stakes at Navan over 2816m after being in the firing line all the way. Going up a level this time but she has the ability to mix it with them. FLATTEN THE CURVE (3) was too good when resuming in an easier race over 2800m in Listed grade at this track last start, scoring by 3 lengths. Open to plenty of improvement and is among the leading chances. ALPENJAGER (2) scored last start at Cologne to make it two wins from four starts this campaign. Takes on tougher opposition this time but is ready for the challenge.
