Verdict
SANS SOUCI BAY made the most of favourable terms to win a selling race over track trip recently with Oakley Pride well beaten. Now with Scott Dixon. he can go in again. Vibes ran poorly over a mile last time but scored over today’s distance on the Turf course at Lingfield before that and looks the main threat. Lexington Sky has a shout at the weights and should have the measure of Topmeup but the rest have a tough task on these terms.
