A few of these have been hurdling including Lungarno Palace, who has won three times on the Flat in the past. The Way You Dance returned to this code with a second over 2m at Chepstow and has every chance but DEEBAJ scored over track and trip back in January when last racing on the level and Ryan Moore’s presence suggests his father’s charge is fancied to go close again. Casemates Square could go well back over 2m today while Malt Teaser also has a shout if lasting home.
