MORRICONE finished well held from his much higher British mark at Bangor on Wednesday yet he'd marked himself down as one to keep firmly on side when successful over shorter here previously and he's well worth siding with to resume progress now. Mr Social rates the chief threat, with Resilient Front and Signora di Milano a couple of handicap debutantes to note in the betting for clues.
