PLAISIR DES FLOS hasn't looked back since sent into handicaps and rates a confident choice to shrug aside a 10 lb hike in the weights and complete his hat-trick. Pentire Head is weighted to go well if back on song with blinkers fitted for the first time. Illogical Logic also needs considering if back on his A-game.
