FAST FLO (11) ran a good race last start to finish third over 1400m at Great Yarmouth. May appreciate coming back in journey. Nice run last time and is likely to be in the finish. NOTRE MAISON (5) finished fourth over 1000m at Wolverhampton at her most recent appearance on October 7. Strong chance to kick the campaign off on the right note. TIME PATROL (4) missed the placings two runs back then was always well out of his ground last start when 12 lengths away in eighth over 1400m at Chelmsford. Likely improver with strong prospects. ROMAN EMPEROR (6) has not won for a long while. Last raced on April 5 when beaten 3.5 lengths into fifth at Great Yarmouth over 1400m after being handy for much of the way. Suitably placed so anticipating a bold performance.
