Primo beat TILSWORTH ONY TA over track and trip in September. The latter can be forgiven a below par effort on testing ground subsequently and re-opposes on more favourable terms. Another Bertie landed a double here early in the year but hasn’t raced since April while Toplight is back on a winning mark if rediscovering his best. Brazen Akoya hit form at this time last year and will be sharper for last month’s outing but Rose Bandit has yet to win on the all-weather.
