Luna Magic won this in 2021 but was beaten in last year’s renewal along with Eton Blue. The latter has been thereabouts in all three starts so far this year but VOLTAIC was partnered by Sarah Bowen when landing one of these events at Salisbury last month and he gets another chance. Nonsuch Lad is partnered by a leading amateur while Morlaix makes a belated seasonal debut and can race off a lower mark on the Turf.
