Saddling three of the five runners, Lucinda Russell will be disappointed if one of her trio doesn’t land the spoils. BOY’S ON TOUR gets the nod seeking a fourth course victory. He has never raced over a trip this far under Rules but did win over 3m between the flags. Chanceiton stays further but was beaten off a 2lb lower mark in a three-runner race here earlier this month. One Forty Seven is having a first run since May and needs to rediscover his best form with a similar comment applying to Pistol Shoot, well beaten in all three starts so far for Gordon Elliott.
