King Of The Celts has won three times over 1m2f here this summer but rarely runs over a trip this far nowadays. DONNA GRACIOSA also won over that trip here in May but showed that a longer distance holds no fears when runner-up at Thirsk and she can get back to winning ways under Silvestre De Sousa. Deep Blue Diamond went up massively for scoring here early last month but has continued to run well and must be respected from his spot in the handicap. Flying Power isn't getting much respite from the assessor and the three-year-old Shalabina was sent over two miles on her last visit here.
