Gale Force Maya won this in 2021 though was well beaten back in handicap company last month and gets a change of headgear. FRANKNESS took advantage of a drop in class at Salisbury last time when beating the re-opposing Al Simmo and another bold bid is expected if the going remains fast. Alcazan is penalised for scoring at Yarmouth but is still preferred to Wolverhampton winner Minnetonka while Executive Decision returns to her winning trip.
