One Night In Milan is a past winner here and was successful on the Flat last year. Elvis Mail has an even better record around here but has only raced over this trip once before and others may be stronger stayers. Aurora Thunder was second over course and distance last month after winning at Musselburgh but Wilde About Oscar has plenty to prove in first-time cheekpieces. Hart Of Steel is a game sort seeking a fourth victory of the campaign and Peter Kavanagh’s claim will aid his cause but FAMOUS BRIDGE had just hit the front when blundering and unseating Brian Hughes on his handicap debut here last month and can recoup losses raised only a pound.
