The headstrong Mr Quicksilver failed to land the odds at Kempton last time and Miro started odds-on at the same track when a long way behind the winner. The Irish raiders are preferred with Perfect Fit going close at Dundalk earlier this month and PHARADELLE just failing on an earlier trip to this track. But the latter finished ahead of a subsequent winner on that occasion and that looks the stronger form. Bamako Du Chatelet was also trained in Ireland before joining current connections and has his first start since April today.
