The Hannon yard has won three of the last five runnings and GROUND CONTROL returns to maiden company after a couple of outings in handicaps. Tom Marquand's claim further helps his cause and he's preferred to stablemate Gunman. Roger Charlton runs Clodianna and Bitter Orange but neither have shown much so far so Fabulous Darling makes more appeal on her debut third at Windsor. Nutbourne Lad wasn't beaten far despite finishing only seventh over track and trip last time and may get involved.
