Former Olympic champion eventer Sir Mark Todd is now training and his first runner could be a winning one as GLOBAL TANGO landed a double on the all-weather for Charlie Hills earlier this year and finished fourth in a tougher sprint than this at Newbury when last in action. This is much more difficult than the seller Green Door won at Lingfield last time though he’s still preferred to stablemate Zamjar while Prince of Rome has undergone wind surgery since placing at Newcastle in June. Zac Brown remains 8lb higher than when last successful, Isle Of Innisfree won a maiden for Ballydoyle last year and debuts for new connections though better is expected from Airshow today returning to the all-weather.
