BINGO D’OLIVATE was having his first start since April when scoring in testing going at Ayr last month and a conditional’s allowance negates a 4lb rise in the weights. The form looks solid enough as fifth-placed Copt Hill went on to score over track and trip last week albeit on faster ground than today's. Lastin' Memories was successful over these obstacles at last week’s meeting here, though that was over a longer trip, while Green Zone finished fourth at Musselburgh recently but is another who would prefer a faster surface.
