Admirality had Outrun The Storm and Zumurud behind when just beaten off this mark at York last month but has been beaten twice since while True Blue Moon has been raised 2lb for a narrow defeat at Pontefract. Song of The Isles won this last year and has her ground again but was out of form in the summer. Erich Bloch was beaten a couple of lengths by stablemate Legal Reform at Catterick last week but is 5lb better off as the winner is penalised. FIRST GREYED was very keen in a visor at Doncaster but wasn’t beaten far and the more usual cheekpieces are back in place today. He gets a tentative vote as Maywake and Katyusha are proving hard to place.
