DUYFKEN was a shade disappointing at Ayr last time, but he's well worth another chance judged on his promising reappearance third at Kelso, especially now moving up to a trip that is expected to suit. Recent C&D scorer Lihyan is likely to go well again, with Leading Force another to consider for a yard starting to hit form.
