The application of first-time cheekpieces looks an interesting addition to the talented James Fanshawe trained HICKORY (3) who shaped nicely when fourth in a very competitive handicap over 7f at Ascot last time. The one to beat back down in grade. Narrow Kempton (7f) handicap runner-up METAVERSE (9) commands respect on turf debut. BE FRANK (8) ran third following home an impressive winner among this company at Goodwood in latest and cannot be ruled out. PEARLE D'OR (4) wasn't disgraced finishing tenth in the aforementioned Ascot handicap behind the main selection. Thereabouts from an each-way perspective.
