Tim Easterby is bidding for a hat-trick of victories in this and Poet's Dawn beat Furzig over a slightly shorter trip here two weeks ago. Give It Some Teddy has become disappointing, however, and may be hampered by a wide draw. KING OF TONGA could also have been better drawn but the Fahey three-year-old is very interesting tackling older horses for the first time. He’s yet to run a bad race and has been unlucky on more than one occasion. Markazi keeps knocking on the door but is still seeking a first win in this country and Kaeso is on a career-high mark after his win at Chester last month. Get Knotted loves it here but today’s going may be a bit lively so Humble Gratitude may be the pick of the remainder.
