GOOD FRIDAY FAIRY has been resurgent since the cheekpieces went on, supplementing his easy Wincanton victory with another emphatic success at Taunton 4 weeks ago. He gets the narrow vote to bring up the hat-trick in this sort of form. Royal Mer and Diplomatic Ash are others to consider, whilst Next Left isn't one to write off from an easing mark.
