PLAY SMARTER

Preference is for GARRICK PAINTER, who stepped up on his debut effort when chasing home a promising type over this C&D in December and he remains open to improvement. Goldkit also found just one too good over C&D on her introduction last month and is feared most, albeit marginally as Wolverhampton winner Saturnalia also makes plenty of appeal.
