Plansina finished ahead of Windsorlot when scoring over track and trip and is preferred to Fashion Free, who won over a mile at Newcastle three days ago and is penalised. But DRAGONS WILL RISE won with something to spare at the latter track on his first start over today’s trip and Micky Hammond’s charge looks worth sticking with. Act Of Magic has plenty to find with the selection and Lady Of York looks high enough in the weights now.
