        Chased leader, ridden to lead 2f out, headed inside final furlong, kept on

        In depth

        Verdict

        Blow Your Horn returns to the Turf having landed a double on the all-weather and is 5lb higher while Dreamweaver went close over 1m4f at Salisbury but would prefer a faster surface. CARLOS FELIX finished runner-up over a shorter trip here on his debut for a new yard when finishing in front of a subsequent winner. He’s taken to go one better with Franny Norton doing the steering today. Buriram won here last year and has a shout on his reappearance as does the returning Eastern Sheriff.
