Some decent sprinters have won this race down the years and if the rain continues to fall, MAGICAL MEMORY can fit the bill. The grey impressed on reappearance at York and he confirmed that favourable impression when sticking on well to score at Haydock. Koropick is lightly raced and he kept on determinedly to pick off Intisaab at Newcastle. The form of that race was given a major boost when David O’Meara’s charge finished just four lengths behind Harry Angel in the July Cup. Tupi isn’t easy to catch but he ran much better than his finishing position suggests in the Diamond Jubilee. Three-year-old's haven't had much success over the last decade though Eqtiraan is fresh from a win at Salisbury and will have a favourable high draw. Gifted Master has gone well when fresh and he’s worthy a market check now he is returning to a distance that suits.
