Verdict

Oz Legend found one too good again when sent off favourite at Wolverhampton last time while La Hulotte placed over 1m4f here having earlier won over track and trip. But PROTECTED GUEST has placed in higher grade races here the last twice and won off a higher mark at Lingfield earlier in the year when last competing at this level. Sandyman slips further down the weights while Dream Tale and Afkaar, imports from Ireland and France respectively, debut for new yards.
