Prairie Falcon drops back down in trip after scoring over 7f at Goodwood but MINNESOTA LAD moves in the opposite direction. The latter won a maiden over the minimum trip at Beverley with plenty left in the tank and Richard Fahey’s charge looks worth sticking with. Zaman Jemil also makes his handicap debut with Frankie taking over the reins while Sanks A Million and Tanzanite placed in handicaps recently, though the latter was due to run at Catterick yesterday.
