This looks wide open but a low draw is usually preferable on the sprint course here and Middleham raider Devil's Angel, second at Redcar last month and a previous winner here, and Penguin Island have not been lucky in that respect. Lingfield third Recon Mission has also won here in the past while The Defiant is only a pound higher than when successful at Chelmsford in June. Impeach was only beaten half-a-length at Goodwood having a first run for a new yard but FOUR ADAAY has done nothing wrong since scoring off this mark at Newmarket in June and will almost certainly run his race again. Libra Tiger may be in the handicapper’s grip while Imperiousity was only third at Brighton on Monday.
