THE GAY CAVALIER is the only course and distance winner in the line-up and though that was his only success in 26 starts on Turf he very nearly doubled his tally at Sandown and can do so here under his regular partner. Gold Merlion has a penalty for an easy victory in a selling handicap on Polytrack at Lingfield and Seven Clans looks more of a threat after a very good run at Yarmouth on Tuesday. Miss Inga Stock has gained three of her four victories within the last few weeks but has looked high in the weights subsequently. Roy Rocket isn't the most consistent but has still managed six victories and can't be ruled out.
