Marienstar was taken out of a Uttoxeter race on Sunday and is rerouted here with a definite chance whilst Bletchley Castle, on the up until disappointing latest, was scheduled to run yesterday at the Staffordshire track. Knight's Parade has gone well the last twice for this conditional and enters the equation on those respectable efforts and Monderon cannot be ignored in receipt of so much weight all round. However, CAPTAINOFINDUSTRY looked right back to form when hacking up at Towcester a week ago for Mark Pitman and should prove hard to beat if in the same vein of form, especially with Noel Fehily booked to do the steering.

Marienstar (IRE) 11-8fav (10-10) Chased leader, led after 3 out, clear after next, mistake last, easily, won at Stratford 2m (5) gs in May beating Queen Of Epirus (10-10) by 21l, 5 ran.
Knight's Parade (IRE) 16-1 (11-12) Tracked leaders, ridden and outpaced 4 out, headway 2 out, went 2nd next, kept on, no chance with winner, 2nd of 7, 7l behind Pongo Twistleton (11-4) at Huntingdon 2m 4f hcp (4) gd in May.
