CUSTARD THE DRAGON (NAP), eight-times a course and distance winner, was returning from a long break when beaten a length on the new surface here 12 days ago and has won from a higher mark than this. Los Camachos, having his 40th start, has never run here but has six all-weather victories to his credit. Gypsy Whisper won three times early in her career before moving to France. She had her first start for Scott Dixon here last week and ran well enough to suggest she can get into contention. Evening Song's only victory came at Chelmsford but she's dropped to a fair mark and her stable has been among the winners.
