Rated 80, ONE NIGHT STAND should opening his account in this company despite dropping down to the minimum trip. He ran well over 6f at Lingfield on his reappearance and has plenty in hand on these terms with Bluebell Time. The remainder with racecourse experience have shown little so the newcomer Royal Appointment will not need to be anything special to figure on her debut and Bob Cowell’s yard has been among the winners in the last week or so.
