Cosmic Sky's only victory came on soft ground at Thirsk and though that was a seller this isn't much better. ETIENNE GERARD is inconsistent but well up to this if anywhere near his best as he's 10lb lower than his last victory a year ago. D K Travel arrives from Ireland with just one placed effort in 11 starts but he wouldn't be coming here without good reason and is greatly respected. Gaelic Wizard wins his share at this level and Great Colaci is on the same mark as when successful here in June.
