Tonto's Spirit won one of these events when landing a double in June but there was cut in the ground on both occasions. Swansway has gone close in amateur races the last twice now and looks sure to be in the mix but a chance is taken on MISS TREE, given John Quinn’s mare ran well again at Chepstow last time having scored at Redcar before that. Tawseef is fit from hurdling and Gabrial The Duke continues to slide down the weights.
