Vayland has no form on ground this quick and is likely to be a short price. Prince Khurram won on similar going over a shorter trip here in the spring, however, though has proved hard to place since. DUN SCAITH didn't enjoy easy going at Newton Abbot earlier this month but his form on quicker surfaces stands up to scrutiny and Sophie Leech's charge could be the value against runners from more fashionable yards with Ciaran Gethings' claim taking care of his penalty.
