SHOPPING AROUND was much improved when runner-up on handicap chase debut at Naas 2 months ago, probably deserving credit for coming through from the back in a messy race, and should have more to offer being unexposed in this sphere. Chalky White has improved of late and is next best ahead of Carnet de Stage.
