WILLOLARUPI (4) finished second two runs back at Wetherby then improved last time out to score by 0.8 lengths over 1220m at Redcar. Well placed and there is no reason he cannot score again. MINNESOTA LAD (5) finished 17th two runs back then did well last start when he made late ground but found one better over 1200m at Lingfield, beaten only half a length. Likely improver with strong prospects. SIR MAXI (10) could only manage seventh two runs back then improved last start when he made late ground but found a couple better over 1180m at Carlisle, beaten 3.5 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can find the winner's circle. DANZAN (7) was below his best last time when 16th over 1200m at York, beaten 14 lengths. Nicely placed to bounce back.
