Both Kinloch Pride and Meshardal bid for hat-tricks, though the former has been winning over 5f. Ancient Astronaut went close again last time having won at Thirsk earlier while Picket Line is only 2lb higher than when scoring at Windsor last month. Harbour Grey is one of the least exposed and further progress is also expected from Hilary J this season but a speculative vote goes to MY DAD SYD with last month’s reappearance under his belt having having won a tougher contest than this last year.
