Maiden winner Ventura Royal returns to action and shares ownership with Ventura Gold and Broken Wings. David O’Meara’s charge is preferred of that trio while stablemate Weellan should be sharper for a recent reappearance and could also figure. Placebo Effect was narrowly beat at Beverley and also has strong claims but MILTON ROAD makes more appeal as Rebecca Bastiman’s charge ran well for third at Musselburgh recently and an apprentice’s allowance could swing things his way in an open contest with Helen Sherbet and Knowing Glance others to consider.
