Laser Ruby didn't improve for the application of a tongue tie when failing to land the odds at Wolverhampton last time, while first-time blinkers failed to work the oracle for Faithful Duchess who started favourite but could only manage third-place on her latest start. Sally's Swansong may do better back over this longer trip but a chance is taken on BROUGHTONS DAY on his return from a lengthy lay-off. He ran green and finished sixth in a Newmarket maiden last year on his only start to date but could have improved enough since to take this.
