THE LION IN WINTER has been most impressive in winning both his starts so far, notably when making all in a strong renewal of the Acomb at York, and he may prove hard to peg back once again. Shadow of Light is the obvious threat having been supplemented for this after his wide margin success in the Middle Park here 2 weeks ago, while his unbeaten stablemate Ancient Truth is another to consider with the form of his Superlative win having worked out well.
