Any number to consider, with BARADAR topping the shortlist having shaped with a lot of promise in a brace of good-quality handicaps this term, latterly in the Victoria Cup when forced to switch. Biggles was an excellent second in that aforementioned race over C&D and he seems sure to give it a good go, with low-mileage 4-y-o Kingdom Come capable of a bigger performance and highly respected also.
