Verdict
ORCHESTRA must love the air on the East Coast given some of his earlier engagements but the booking of William Buick and the application of a visor appear to be positive moves from a punting perspective. Lisboa is a fascinating runner from an ownership perspective as the Gosdens aim to land one for the lads. Mythical Guest was third in a Newmarket maiden that has worked out well while Entrancement showed his liking for testing conditions when scoring at Goodwood but the handicapper has raised him to the tune of 11lb for those labours while Ramensky is very much a work in progress and ran creditably here last month.
