ROUNDHAY PARK is a tough sprinter who was staying on over a slightly shorter trip at Wetherby. He won the Bronze Cup at Ayr last season and is only 2lb higher. Triggered is starting to look well treated but needs a faster surface. Eye Of The Water got loose before the start of his intended reappearance at Ascot and was withdrawn but he has a chance on his best form and Music Society is not out of this. Dick Datchery was making up ground hand over fist when fourth at Thirsk two weeks ago but is another who needs it quicker.
