Verdict
The application of a tongue-tie brought a much better effort from ENEMY AT THE GATE as he just missed out over track and trip last month and can go one better in this. Farne Island also finished runner-up here last time while Moonlight Glory scored over a shorter trip at the track back in February. Celestial Fashion improved for a breathing operation and found only one too good at Carlisle while Warriors Story was narrowly beaten at Ayr on his penultimate start.
