SOMETHING LUCKY can include a couple of course and distance wins in a recent hat-trick and the four-timer beckons having landed a higher grade sprint here last week. He’s carried top weight to victory before and also has the beating of several of these including Archie Stevens. Kingstreet Lady finished in front of both Novabridge and Fly True when fourth at Newcastle and debuts on this surface along with the less exposed Grand Myla. The latter has slipped down the weights and Dapper Man ended last year with a close-up second at Thirsk in September.
