It could pay to stick with IMPERIAL DJAY here. He was only beaten a head in similar going at Chester last week and drops down a grade today. Levitate and Eastern Hills are closely matched on their running behind No Poppy at Doncaster last month and Rigolleto went close at Yarmouth recently and a first-time visor may bring some improvement. Both Prime Exhibit and Chiswick Bey have the past form to figure if at their best but Capaill Liath may prefer faster ground.
