Vivid Diamond has been running well this season without managing to get her head in front. She’s been dropped a pound since her second at Chester and has every chance of going one better but KIEFER is just preferred. Eve Johnson Houghton’s colt just came up short at Salisbury after winning at Newbury and still seems to be heading in the right direction. Lariat deserves a change of luck but has gone up in the weights again so has it all to do. Stamina could be an issue for Production but older horses Mutamaded and Western Duke are likely to run their race again.
