Temple Lord has become expensive to follow but August Hill has proved a money-spinner this year, winning three times over timber and making a successful chasing bow at Stratford. She won't go down without a fight but DRUMLANG was back to something approaching his best when just beaten in a three-way finish at Market Rasen. He's been raised a couple of pounds but Robert McCarth's claim takes care of that and Ian Williams' charge might be the one to beat. Quinsman has been running well over further here this summer and has the beating of Kyles Faith but Ballygrooby Bertie and Regal One have a bit to prove now.
