Mark Johnston has trained four of the five previous winners and relies on Renfrew Street. The latter has a shout back over 1m4f today but DARK RULER is preferred. The latter went close over a longer trip here back in May and will appreciate any further rain. All of the recent winners step up in class including Carbon Dating and Time Of My Life, who were both successful at this venue, but make more appeal than Salmon Sushi and Top of The Glas. Hillgrove Angel won over 2m last time and English Summer is preferred in this grade off his current mark.
