THE TIMEFORM VIEW
Having shown plenty when runner-up on debut, FLYING FRONTIER went one better at Carlisle at the beginning of the month and he can score again with the further step up in trip to suit. Liseo wasted no time getting back to form on his latest outing and could be the main danger, ahead of Iron Lion.
