Verdict

Several of these come into this in good form, most noticeably Invincible Hero who is chasing a hat-trick after comfortable wins at Ayr and Doncaster. Declan Carroll's four-year-old should be thereabouts again, despite a further 8lb rise. Master Mylo may be too high in the weights now but Chester winner Hacienda still looks reasonably handicapped and Indian Jack is gradually easing toward a decent mark again. Bits of form give Tasfeya an outside chance but the interesting one may be TROJAN NIGHTS. Useful apprentice John Fahy takes 3lb off Willie Haggas' three-year-old, who hasn't been disgraced in decent company since landing his maiden at Ripon in May. The drop back to a mile could see him back in the winner's circle.
