Verdict
A five-year-old has landed eight of the last 10 renewals and DUMBARTON is fancied to continue the trend. A close-up third over track and trip last month despite a stumble in the home straight, James Moffatt's charge looks up to landing this. Lightening Rod is 5lb higher than when scoring over track and trip in April and has a recent run under his belt while Fair Trade can figure off today's mark with a 7lb conditional on board. Mitchell's Way will find today's trip sharp enough and Hartside makes more appeal having beaten Pertuis and Lifetime over course and distance earlier this month with Mojolika and Zafranager further behind. Doynosaur had just the one outing last season when well beaten over fences but had shown some promise over timber before that.
