Lunar Jet won this last year but has struggled so far this season but Long Tradition finished in front of stablemate Royal Marine in the Cambridgeshire last time, though neither was ever a threat. The going is a worry for True Scarlet having completed a double on fast ground while Sweet Reward won a lower grade contest at Goodwood last month. One Journey should be sharper for a recent run at York but LUISA CASATI faced a tough task sent over to France for a Listed race last time and gets another chance on her handicap debut having won in soft going at Lingfield earlier.
