The market will probably tell us what to expect from the returning Streams Of Whiskey but Richard Harding is a positive jockey booking. Hindon Road would have a squeak on his best form but Out Now isn’t getting any younger. Barel Of Laughs beat LORD BEN by more than five lengths when successful at Taunton last month but the latter receives weight today and it would be no surprise if Richard Patrick’s mount reversed the placings.
