Gunnerside won over track and trip in May but disappointed on his latest visit. Vindobala is best on the all-weather while the going may not be quick enough for Yaaser but he goes well here. ASCOT ADVENTURE has been a shade disappointing since joining David O’Meara but he has his sights lowered today and can give the weight away to Thirsk winner Lilikoi and the three-year-old Gone. Judgment Call was entered in the 5.25 Ayr yesterday so that result should be monitored.
