A handful of course and distance winners on show. Whisky Bravo's victory came in a seller and Art Dzeko still looks a shade high in the weights on his recent form. Fairy Wing's latest poor effort over 7f here can be forgiven and he can figure though Prince Of Passion is 5lb higher than when scoring at the track back in May. PULL THE PIN landed a double over track and trip earlier in the year and Declan Carroll's charge gets the nod in a tight sprint as an apprentice's 7lb allowance means he can effectively race off a lower mark today.
