Rustang has been in good form at Chelmsford but is upped a further 4lb for his latest success over today’s trip. The less-exposed PEPPER STREET would have finished closer over 1m2f at Nottingham on her reappearance had she got a clear run and Hugo Palmer’s filly should be in the firing-line once again. Banksy's Art and Yamuna River stay this far while a host of lightly-raced types step up in trip today with the likes of Groveman, Liva, Victory Chime and Pippin all worth a second glance in the betting.
