Verdict

In a seller where nothing arrives with compelling claims it's worth taking a chance that the one-time useful FANCY FOUNDATIONS, who hasn't been with the Laura Morgan stable for long, retains enough ability to win at this level. It's possible a drop in class and a new headgear combination might spark Excelcius back to life so he's second choice ahead of R Mike Smith's Irish recruit Trebizond.
