Maso Bastie was very green at Kempton but still has three lengths to find with CITY OF YORK on that run. However, William Buick switches from Congresbury to take the ride so he may be the main threat to David Simcock’s charge. Miss Dolly Rocker will be hard to keep out of the frame again while Inny Lad took a step forward from his debut run when second at Kempton and may have more to offer.
