Gary Moore has enjoyed plenty of success at this fixture over the years including with Yorksea last season but the latter finished behind third-placed stablemate TEDDY BLUE (NAP) in Grade 3 company at Newbury recently. The latter won over track and trip before that and may prove the one to side with. Ray's The One is another course and distance winner and has been raised 8lb while Dream In The Park completed a double with a victory at Ascot in October and is 5lb higher. Dobryn will appreciate this drop in class and is preferred to Pyramid Place of the rest.
