GALATA BRIDGE ran very well at Ludlow returning from a break and will make a bold bid to defy top weight. Eagle's Realm won twice at Stratford last summer while Sarsons Risk still has time on his side and more scope than fellow four-year-old Cabrakan. Spirit Of Regulus has been dropped 4lb since his handicap debut but needs more.
