SEA STONE (3) missed out on a hat-trick when third at Southwell in latest though it remained a rock-solid effort as would have finished a touch closer with a clearer passage. Set for a return to winning ways back on turf off an unchanged mark. The course at Lingfield AW wouldn't have played to the strengths of ART DE VIVRE (8) last start as the Charlie Fellowes trained gelding looked an out-and-out galloper when finding success at Thirsk. May do better back at a track like Ascot. Stablemate EL JASOR (5) could rediscover form removing cheekpieces worn when disappointing in latest. OCEANLINE (4) cannot be discounted.
