MY SINGLE MALT was successful in this race last year under tonight's rider and Julie Camacho's gelding is fancied to stage a repeat having stayed on with a degree of promise at Newcastle. Tarooq and Kung Hei Fat Choy are prolific winners on artificial surfaces though neither has been able to transfer those performances onto the Turf. Just Paul has dropped to a handy enough mark at present while Space War is yet to follow up a success on the Fibresand at Southwell but is very much one to note in the market. Prime Exhibit was third in this race last season and leading amateur rider Serena Brotherton has been booked.
