Unbeaten HEATH HOUSE is hard to oppose after 3 consecutive wins, each one more impressive than the last. BETTER NEVER ENDS was a 40-1 winner of a course-and-distance Grade 2 last time so must be respected. However, jockey Muzi Yeni deserts that last-start winner in favour of wide-margin debut scorer GIMME SOME LUCK, suggesting the latter could pose more of a threat to the selection. PRAYERSANDPROMISES (cheekpieces fitted) and stablemate VIKING LASS (sex allowance) can get into the picture too.
