No recent winning form on offer but GREY GALLEON won this last year with Amelia Glass doing the steering. Now back on the same mark, Clive Cox’ grey gets the vote. Lethal Angel drops back down in class but has yet to score on Turf in 15 attempts while Seprani is another regularly placed but rarely wins and was still beaten a long way when second at Lingfield recently. Englishman won off a much higher mark over track and trip last year but isn’t the force of old nowadays, though finished in front of Aegean Mist at Windsor on his latest start.
