The vote goes to MR NUGGET, who took a step forward when runner-up on his second start in handicap company at Southwell and his best days should still be ahead of him. Handicapdebutant Incan Empire is very much of interest and will be all the more appealing if the market speaks in his favour, while Harry The Haggler is also shortlisted
