Mark Johnston sent out the winner of both divisions of this in 2018 and looks to have every chance with ANDONNO. The latter made a promising start when runner-up at Kempton and should make a bold bid. Vivid Imagination showed major improvement at Newbury last week and Golden Claim finished closer over 7f last time. Dansing Bear finished fourth over track and trip on his debut and will know more today while Almadrina is a half-sister to Listed winner Sir Boris and makes more appeal of the newcomers.
