Verdict

FANCY FOOTINGS took a big step forward on first run for this yard and with the promise of more to come over this extra furlong he can get off the mark. A Step Too Far shaped well last time and in a tricky contest rates the main threat with Gatsby Cap the type to put a rare poor run behind him, completing the short list.
