COCKALORUM is penalised for winning at Musselburgh. He wouldn’t want the ground any faster but looks worth sticking with in this company. Jacinta De Vega has plenty of scope but hasn’t raced since October and debuts for a new yard while Home Before Dusk placed at Ayr earlier but has yet to win on Turf in 16 attempts so far. Mr Coco Bean won a Haydock before struggling on the all-weather while Arch Moon has plenty to prove over today’s longer trip judged on earlier efforts.
