Last Voyage won a shade cosily over 6f at Windsor in May but it’s a worry that he’s not been seen since. IL PRIMO SOLE made all at Yarmouth last month and could be called the winner a long way from home. He’s got an entry in the Racing Post Trophy and will be expected to double his tally getting 2lb from the Godolphin representative. Ragstone Road justified favouritism in a Lingfield maiden earlier this month but this looks a tougher assignment. Wafy has a nice pedigree and some fancy entries but will need to do better than at Newmarket last month.
