Rated 85, DIRTY RASCAL is more exposed than most having notched-up a frustrating run of seconds. Demoted at Ascot in June after passing the post first, Richard Hannon’s colt gets one more chance in this. Astronaut was still beaten a long way when third at Yarmouth on his debut and Grandstand is preferred while Teresita Alvarez failed to show any progress at Doncaster on her latest start. Venture is a 230,000gns half-brother to a winner and a newcomer to note.
