Neil Mulholland’s pair, The Twisler and Dream Machine, are probably having a pipe-opener before going back jumping. Marion's Boy slips further down the weights while Dartington is worth another try over this longer trip having shown some improvement lately. SARATOGA GOLD has been lightly campaigned this season and looks to have slipped to a decent mark so is preferred to the luckless Clay and the even less-exposed Modestus, who makes his handicap debut with Ryan Moore taking over the reins.
