Veteran Haajes took this last year but three-year-olds had won the two previous renewals so Penny Royale, sporting first-time blinkers, and Makin A Statement are worth a market check along with Lazy Days In Loule.

Dandy Nicholls and Kieren Fallon looks a winning combination with MAJESTIC MANANNAN, beaten less than a length at Hamilton last Monday and racing off the same mark here. Pontefract third Thatcherite is preferred to Perardua and Sartori of the others.
