A couple of these make a quick reappearance with HIGHLAND DRESS (NAP) expected to confirm superiority with previous course winner Split Down South having finished runner-up over track and trip two days ago. That was his first outing since July and debut for Archie Watson’s yard and he also has an apprentice’s allowance helping his cause today. Badayel could prove a threat now handicapping having won a novices’ race by a long way here last month though he beat little and was engaged yesterday at Kempton. Moveonup steps up in trip on the back of placed efforts here and is preferred to both Robero and Glory of Paris.
