Verdict
After 30 months on the sidelines, LUNAR PROMISE made a triumphant return to action at Kempton on Wednesday. Though a nine-year-old, Ian Williams's charge is very lightly raced and could easily follow up under a penalty here providing that run hasn't taken too much out of him. Zagarock beat Bussell Along over C&D last month and is only 6lb higher today but Duneen Dream has been found wanting over this trip in the past and Fastinthestraight is a Polytrack specialist who lacks a recent run.
