Rainbow Pride ended last year with a win over today’s trip at Chelmsford but returns to action off a 10lb higher mark. TEMPURAN makes more appeal as he scored over track and trip in January, with the re-opposing Todd four lengths behind, and Ryan Moore picks up the reins for this. Todd has since gone close back here but Kawartha could only manage third over track and trip in April having won a maiden race over 1m4f here before that. Alshan Fajer is another with something to prove over 2m judged on earlier efforts.
