FLYING MOON (NAP) was landing the last leg of a treble when successful in last season’s renewal. He’s 3lb lower today and a recent third at Hamilton suggests a bold bid is likely. Havana Go won over track and trip recently but the soft ground is a worry for him while Aone Ally has plenty of scope debuting for a new yard but hasn’t raced since May. Vocatus slides further down the weights and is preferred to Propagation though the latter may improve fitted with a tongue-tie for this.
