Trulee Scrumptious is now a 10-year-old but she is back in form and won this back in 2014. Mitigator is also running well at present while Mutadaawel has not been disgraced in any of his three starts on Turf so far in Ireland, going close at the Curragh in May. Creek Island is starting to slip down the weights but his only win to date came on soft going. A similar comment applies to Moxy Mares so we’ll take a chance on DESTROYER. Hopefully last month’s run at York will have blown away a few cobwebs as he’s now 6lb lower than when successful here a year ago.
