Pheidippides has ran poorly the last twice now and headgear is applied in the hope of a return to form. Oneovdem is getting closer and finished in front of The Celtic Machine when runner-up here last time while Yimou failed to figure at Kempton on his latest start having finished second at Chelmsford earlier. SHAMLAHAR also found one too good on her debut only to disappoint at Wolverhampton back in June. Rested since, Simon Crisford’s filly gets another chance on her comeback. Well beaten at Southwell on his debut, Dubai Eye may do better on this surface with blinkers added today.
