Nightmare makes his racecourse debut and stablemate Zio Gianni sets the standard with a mark of 72. Like the remaining trio, the latter has been competing at around a mile and takes a big step up in distance for this. West Coast Flyer and My Isla made only modest introductions and the former has not raced since September but KAISAN is bred for middle-distances. He returned a losing favourite at Southwell last time but Michael Bell's charge should be seen in a much better light here.
