Verdict
DUNDORY won this off today’s mark last year and connections will be hoping the ground remains on the soft side. On The Right Track also won this in 2021 but found Lhebayeb too good at Bath last month and the latter is upped in class bidding for a hat-trick. Carp Kid was well beaten behind runner-up Meleri at Newbury last time having landed a double over shorter trips in July while Mount Olympus has been winning Class 6 races and is upped a further 7lb. Eagle One was placed yet again on his return to action and debut for a new yard.
