Charlie Appleby sent out last year’s winner and SETTING SAIL looks to have leading claims today. The son of Dansili just missed out at Leicester on a recent debut and should stay this extra distance. Knightly Spirit was a well beaten third over a mile here last time but still finished ahead of the disappointing Mt Augustus, who had earlier ran well at Sandown on his debut when finishing in front of Berkshire Spirit. Voice of The North and Nebuchadnezzar are bred to stay middle-distances and are others to note.
