Leicester third Clef was a non-runner here on Friday and takes her chance in this instead. NAUTICAL HAVEN is preferred, however, as he ran well for a long way on his racecourse debut at York - Kevin Ryan’s colt should go close with normal progress. Kyllang Rock never looked like catching subsequent Windsor Castle winner Ardad when fourth at Yarmouth but can figure in this while Magic Journey, a half-brother to three winners, is preferred to Lonely The Brave and Jeany of the newcomers.
