An open sprint with three bidding for hat-tricks. But both Eilean Dubh and Il Bandito drop down in trip and Dream Composer is preferred on a recent success at Goodwood. Music Society is looking to repeat last year’s win in this on the back of scoring at Catterick but Corinthia Knight is upped a couple of grades having scored over track and trip last time. ABERAMA GOLD is looking to end a long losing run but a recent length defeat at Doncaster suggests a return to winning ways is imminent having slid down the weights and it could be his turn today.
