CATALAN KING left previous efforts behind switched to a handicap when finding just one too good at Ayr earlier this month and, with first-time blinkers applied to eke out that bit extra, Ed Bethell's charge is fancied to go a place better on all-weather debut at the expense of Unique Spirit, who opened his account over C&D recently and remains of interest from just 2 lb higher. Val Bassett looks best of the remainder.
