A race named in honour of the Mark Johnston-trained Double Trigger and the trainer runs two in this. SEA YOUMZAIN showed promise with a debut second over today’s trip at Leicester and she gets the nod on that form ahead of stable companion and newcomer Lucky Deal. We Know has every chance on a recent fourth at Goodwood but I'm Improving returned a disappointing favourite at Hamilton last time. Munstead Gold has plenty to prove back on Turf today and the remainder make even less appeal.
