Dark Intention finished runner-up in an amateurs' race over track and trip last time when ahead of RIGHT ACTION. But the latter is fancied to reverse running today reunited with Silvestre De Sousa having won under him at Doncaster in March with both Saluti and Proud Archi behind. He’s also preferred to stablemate Luis Vaz De Torres while Kupa River has placed in both starts since winning at Musselburgh last month but remains 6lb higher and Magical Effect makes more appeal off his current mark having posted a better effort at Ayr last time. Candelisa and Shawaamekh were both placed over a mile recently while Esprit De Corps has plenty to find with the selection on Doncaster running and the unexposed Stoney Lane is preferred.
